    knocking noise and feel

    when i pull away and when i brake i get this knock and i can feel it in the footwell.

    all engine mounts are brand new and fine as i checked them.

    is it the ball joint take a look what this says

    it sounds just like my problem but people have told me it could be the cv joints or drivesaft how do i know?

    you can check by jacking up the front and grabing the wheel 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock i think and check for play also repeat this check but this time 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock positions generally checking for play that aint feel right or natural. hope this helps

    Have a look at your bottom 'dog bone' engine tie. The bigger bush may be fooked.
