I have had a knocking(ish) noise from front when driving and going over even small dips in the road for the past few months. Car was up for MOT yesterday and passed with no problems. A friend says it could be "link arms" if the 220 CDI coupe has them? Says they are cheap and an easy job to fix. Would anyone know if there are link arms on this model?

Cheers.

Hi Television.

It's a C220 CDI Sports Coupe (2003).

Greasing that bush when fitting would prolong the life of it, also sanding the bar clean where it passes through the bush
