    If they have agreed there is a knock there i'd leave it to them to find. However its got to be a loose suspension joint of some form or part of the braking kit imo.

    If your worried that may happen, jack it up, remove the wheel and have a poke around yourself. You'd be amazed what dealers miss sometimes.....

    Could be the pads moving about in the caliper?
