Just replaced the rear subframe and bushes as i thought the knocking coming from the rear drivers side was that.....but it turns out it wasnt...

There is a very slight knock coming from the rear drivers side of the car when going over a slight bump....

What could it be, As said, not subframe bushes as i have just replaced them all

Also check the trailing arm bushes and handbrake cable as they can knock against the trailing arms. :driving:
