Knock ?

My 360 has started to "knock" ? sometimes when on full lock or on uneven ground and the odd noise when reversing slowly, the reverse noise sounds like the exhaust of rear brakes, but the knock sounds like a track rod end type of knock (my sons Saxo VTR had to have a short track rod end type of thing a few months ago and it was the same type of knock) I don't mean the T/R/Ends at the end of the s/rack.
What do you think - any previous owners got an idear ?

With what you explained, I would go with the track rod end too. Get underneath and check its not something simple like the exhaust bashing about. Also check if the fuel tank is loose, that's the important one. Where abouts is the knock coming from?

The only knock I ever heard was the exhaust.
Had a rubber missing but passed mot that way.
Used to bump going over speed bumps or on pull away sometimes, but never noticed anything on lock.
Sorry I couldn't be more help.
