#1: OSF knocking over any bumps Author: JJ0063, Location: NorfolkPosted: Thu Jan 06, 2011 3:41 pm ---- Hi all,
My front drivers side has started knocking alot, over the tiniest of defect in the road it sounds like metal knocking on metal. there is no vibrating or pulling to a side
is this just a bush or something? are there any common issues with 206 suspension?
the car has been lowered in the past so wouldnt suprise me if a bush has worn!

Yes as stated before it will be these that are knackered. Only a 10 minute job! I would do both sides as if one is gone chances are the other will be close to going as well
