I want to know, if mine "strange noise from front wheel" is the "famous knocking"...

My car make strange noise, only when accelerating! And it is only from the left front wheel...
This noise is there only when the engine is warm. And it NOT depends where am I driving (bumps or new highway) everywhere the same noise.

I think it is something in engine, because it is making the noise only when accelerating.

Doesn't sound like the infamous knock to me. More of a drive train issue.

I think you need a trip to your local stealers.  Arctic Frost TDV6 SE. Aspen Leather, Cherry Wood, Privacy Glass, PTI, Tow Pack, Mudflaps, Tasmods, a new Fuelflap, a RRSport.co.uk umbrella in the boot & a RRSport.co.uk sticker on the rear glass.

Are your wheels 20"/21" 0r 22" D? Before you take the car into the dealer make sure you have the standard wheels fitted. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

You are OK then D, anything else might have given them a wriggle clause to get out of any repair had you been running bigger wheels 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Sounds like the valves actually or maybe a slight exhaust leak or perhaps catalytic converter? hard to tell from the video... PJPR

Did the noise start suddenly or has it increased over time?

Did it start right after the latest adventures in the snow, any hard offroading, any warning signals on the dash such as reduced engine performance? PJPR

It started in september, october...dont know exactly... It started on highway. But it appeared from time to time. But now it is everytime I driving...

Well, my snow adventures were in december - no effect.

The engine is still powerful as before. I still can do 0-100kmh under 6.6 seconds... RANGE ROVER, MORE THAN A CAR, LESS THAN A KITKAT

Somebody else has some ideas...??  RANGE ROVER, MORE THAN A CAR, LESS THAN A KITKAT
