Also whether the knock was obvious just on uneven surfaces or while driving on smoother roads too? Mine feels and sounds like the front shock is bottoming out on full extension. It isn't terrible but if I can get BMW to fix this now it may save me cost later on. These shocks are around £470 each so definitely not cheap!

Sorry, only just seen your reply.
It was only obvious on uneven surfaces, anything from small lumps/holes in the surface tarmac upwards. Williams Rochdale sorted it out at the time.
Since then it re-developed the noise - around April this year the same dealership replaced the front offside suspension bushing which silenced things again. So far so good.
Go and have a moan before your warranty ends
