    I HAVE A KNOCKING NOISE FROM THE FRONT OF MY PEUGEOT 307. BUT THIS ONLY
    HAPPENS WHEN IT RAINS I.E GETS WET. THE ONLY THING THAT LOOKS LIKE IT GETS
    WET, IS THE ANTI ROLL BAR BUSHES. IT IS NOT THE BOTTOM BALL JOINTS, DOES ANY
    ONE KNOW WHAT THE KNOCKING COULD BE, OR HAS ANY ELSE GOT THE SAME PROBLEM.
    PLEASE HELP.

    Could be:

    Anti-roll bar drop links (either side) cost about £35 on e-bay a pair and
    take a bout 30 mins to fit.

    Bottom suspension ball joints: dunno how much they cost as Peugeot replaced
    them for me under warranty as well as the bottom suspension arms a few weeks
    later (long story).

    Top strut bearings.

    It could also be reflected noise from the back of the car :)

    Of course if it only happens when you are cornering hard or at full lock
    then it is the c.v. joints on the driveshafts. Rain doesn't matter to these
    diagnoses but it could easily be the mounts that you have dismissed, most
    likelely it is the drop links.

    P.S. YOUR CAPS LOCK KEY APPEARS TO BE BROKEN, bad form as it is considered
    shouting here.

    I would take it into your dealer - it sounds like something they will know
    about and depending how old your car is they will fix it under warranty.

    See ya,
