Ok, engine off, wobble wheel and there are different knocks, I think from the steering rack being forced; if I wobble it slightly at another angle than center, I think I can hear the same knock, but faintly. It’s more like the spring compressing and slipping on a metal surface.
Then, start the engine, and wobble steering. Omg, it makes that noise... I feel like you knock my knees with a hammer. And it’s even worse if you drive at low speeds and wobble steering wheel fast.
Basically the noise is exactly like strong spring moving and slipping around. But the car holds the road very well, doesn’t feel jerkish.

So it’s the top mounts? Or the rear bushings of the arm?
It’s a pain in the ass whichever might be (although it’s better than an engine mount )
