Hi, the 380 we own has a noise very similar to the good ol shocker knock but only when the car is cold but after 15 mins or so it fades and then it takes a big bump to make it knock. The small hollow trenches across the road are the biggest nusience. Brother has a verada and he had a similar noise and replaced his front struts which stopped the noise but ive spoken to others that have done lots of kms in the 380 and never a problem with struts. I was told maybe an engine mount, but theres no knock on powering on/off. Can anyone suggest what it more than likely is before i go get new struts and find that not the problem. cheers

Front sway bar bushes cause this in the 380's.

Thankyou for that advice, i'l look into getting them replaced. Cheers

Second to front sway bar bushes. Replaced them in both the extended family's 380s. Hard to get to but possible at home.

Whats a good source for these.....

Any dealer's spare parts department. I paid $8 each about a year ago.
