hi all found out what the knocking noise on left hand bends its the engine moving to the right and causing the top engine bracket of the mounting to touch the inner chassis leg we can see were its touching the body anybody elsehad this problem.

Just checked mine mate and it's fine. Does look quite tight down there though so I can see it being a problem if the mount's are worn.

I put in aftermarket poly mounts and although the noise and vibration did go up, I'm keeping them for the solid feel in corners.
