Funny, I had a thumpy rattle the other day, same as you, every time I went over ruts or a pothole there it was. I stopped I checked I bounced on the front bumper but I couldn’t recreate the noise.
When I got home and opened the second row door to get the bag out, I found the wife’s walking pole on the floor, it was this all along!! Have you checked for self created noise?  “a committee is a group of people who individually can do nothing, but as a group decide nothing can be done.” |

I had the same. Sent it in. They thought shock absorber. Went to change it and found a bush on steering arm had gone. Parts on back-order so putting up with it for now. Have been assured it's fine to drive. https://instagram.com/bentheoandrews

Mine has been in for 2 weeks, they had fitted microphones and changed suspension arm and shock absorbers and the rattle is still there, not sure what they’re going to do next, they still have car. 4000 miles

Got car back rattle gone, was the right and left front control arms - car built in January 2023 if anyone has similar rattles on bumpy roads, in reality car a lot quieter now, even on smooth roads.
Must admit service at Inchcape Norwich was excellent finding faulty parts |

Great you got it sorted. I need to call up about mine again. Said they were waiting for a part in June and not heard anything since and just learned to live with the noise! https://instagram.com/bentheoandrews
