i was driving when i heard a massive loud bang from front drivers side and now i hear rattle noise when i go over bumps over 20mph what could it be?? So i have checked under the bonnet and cant see anything, checked under the car and cant not see anything. I think it may be coming from the front drivers side. Nothing obvious but could be suspension.

Something is loose, worn or broken and if you perform a closer inspection, you should be able to see if. Most probably something to do with the suspension system and the stabilizer links are common failurre areas.
