Hi,

It sounds like a lot has already been done. LOL Has anyone checked the front shocks? There was a technical service bulletin related to a knocking noise caused by the strut/shock.

Take a look below. I attached the technical service bulletin I'm referring to. Check to see if your vehicle's production date falls in the indicated dates.

Let me know.
