Default 2005 XC90 - Front End persistent knocking

Hi all,
Looking for some suggestions on where else to look on my XC90 for the cause of front end knocking.

2005 XC90 V8 with 111k miles on it.

Bought used knowing it had knocking so immediately swapped out the following on both sides:
  • Upper strut mounts and bearings
  • End links
  • Control arms with new bushings
  • Ball joints

I then put new original spec tyres all round (Bridgestone) and had it all aligned. This solves 90% of the problem with handling and knocking issues.

I still have a front end knocking that sounds like its front pax side. I've heard it could be engine mount but wanted to check with some experts on areas to investigate.

Thanks in advance,
CA
