Front End Knocking Back In Again And Again

Hi Guys :

Once again my car is going to the stealers, it went in last week for constant knocking from front i could not take any more, anyway complete new wishbones and bushes, drove it out of stealers and guess what its back yep the horrible knocking.
its going in tommorow.
since i got it back the first time after new wishbones and bushes i took it on the motorway and it was all over the place difficult to drive and the suspension was non existant, is this normal or have they completly wrecked my car.
its done 24k and now the brake pad light is on and they say it may need new disks, i thought buy a good car and then i would not need to spend as much , mmm not the case.


Anybody had the same problem, i have seen somewhere about the car geometery could this be the problem.

I would suggest taking it to another dealer. Choose one recommended on this forum. Are Hillendale Land Rover at Nelson anywhere near you? They have 'sorted' other cars knocking noise in the past. Gone - 2008 TDV8, Stornoway Grey, ebony, zabrano trim, TV, Tasmods, mudflaps.

Out of curiosity (and possible benefit should anyone get it in the future). Did they say how they fixed it?

Good news, I just got my truck back and I am happy to report the "clunk" is finaly gone. I had a tech ride with me to verify the noise and they replaced 2 worn sway bar bushings #RBX500280 (Left & right) The tech also said they have replace more than a couple of these already. After a long year of listining to that noise I can say again my truck is silent.....for now. They also replace a leaking coolant hose at the thermostat, and replaced my steering wheel because it was "delaminating."

I had the bushings replaced in Dec and the noise is back again. After 6 attempts and 21 days in the shop, I just sent my certified letter to LRNA to allow them one more attempt to fix this before I lemon


I got a fax from LRNA and they have agreed that my vehicle qualifies for repurchase under the NJ lemon law. I'm sending them all the finance papers so they can calculate the repurchase amount.
