Citroen AX knocking

The wife has just got home from work and is saying the car (citroen AX derv) is knocking when turning left. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to what this 'might' be? Its getting dark here so no point in me having a look.

Just really wondering if its a common failure of a part on these cars really.

just another job to add to the list of jobs to do whilst on holiday next week
