It will be the bushes on the control blade(s) arm(s).

Very common problem. Requires a partial subframe drop and a special remover / install tool.

These rear bushes are the ones nearest the front of the car.

I had a front end knocking and it was the anti roll bar bushings. Once changed it was bliss and better handling again.
