hello all

im getting a knocking sound from the passenger side wheel area, its an 850 T5 estate manual 95, it takes the big bumps nice an quielty (speed humps)but the smaller bumps in the road produce a knocking sound, like a bush has gone somewhere.
My local mechanic had a look, but could not see anything
Anyone have any ideas as to what it could be??
Thanks in advance for any replies!!

Especially these days with all the slow me down bumps, and the potholes in the road, and the cobbled streets we still have oop north. :haha:
