I am experiencing a continual knocking sound from the area of the rear right hand wheel. Nothing seems to be loose and the damping on the shock absorber seems fine. Any ideas what it might be?
Many thanks Rob.
Have since replaced shocks and problem sorted!

I have seen the front CV axle go out and cause this issue. Does it do it more when you are in a turn, if so this is where I would look.
