Driver Side Knocking Noises

[John_B_220d]

Hi guys im new to the forum but have been viewing and reading this forum for a while now for some excellent advice, anyways im having a really frustrating problem with my mrs 2006 is220d, when i go over dips and humps on the right wheel theres a knocking sound, now i thought it could have been the top mount so i replaced that but that didn't solve anything, so i thought il replace the anti-roll bar bush and drop links to see if that could be the problem but again no difference what so ever. When i try to bounce the car up and down while the car is stand still theres no noise, theres no play in the wheel or anywhere else, visually i can't see anything wrong underneath, this is driving me nuts as i haven't got a clue what else it could be!

If someone can please shine some light to my problem i'd appreciate it!

I've had movement in between pad and disc before now, apparently not sitting firmly wherever they are meant. Result in a dull knocking noise on both front corners.

I had a similar problem on my Golf, turned out to be the drivers side door hinge. Greased it up and it stoped.
