knocking

I get a knocking sound coming from the rear left when I make a hard left turn. Right is fine... any ideas?

Is it a constant knock or a single knock, could be exhaust catching rear axel or maybe a broken coil spring on the very last coil

Antiroll bar or bush?

Check the rear antirollbar drop link. If the rubbers are perished they knock. replace both if you do need to change one Fairly cheap and easy DIY fix if the self locking nuts are not too tight.
