• Have you checked the ARB links?

    Is there an easy way to do this?

    Googling also brought this up as a possible reason for the knocking.

  • They can be tricky to diagnose when they are still linked up. I've never looked under a mk6 golf but I am assuming if you know the right end from the wrong end of a spanner and can safely jack a car up they will be pretty easy(famous last words) to remove and check. you'll need both sides jacked up level. Once one end is disconnected from the ARB have a waggle of the joint and see if there is any inward/outward movement or if they are loose.

  • If they move with your hands they are buggered. Try and move them. Any play, replace with decent ones not cheap crap.

    They link the anti roll bar to the struts, has it got a rear anti roll bar?

    Is it urgent or can wait till I'm back in the UK?

  • Surprised garage not figure. If drain thud sounds like a suspension or linkage issue? Are the bushes gone?
