Through further investigation i only get wheel wobble when the front left wheel goes over pot holes/bumps, right wheel only going over pot holes, no wobble what's so ever.
2 new top strut mounts are on their way from DMGRS which will hopefully solve 1 (clonk noise) if not both problems. If not then potential wishbone bushes.
The clonk noise as well as the wobble could actually both come from the lower arm rubber bush too of course, and, as Steve says, it could also be either of the two ball joint in the wishbone, causing both clonk and wobble.Originally Posted by DomT101
Track-rod end ball joints and play on the joint between inner track-rod and the end of the rack, are also possibilities. All should be easy to check, but don't be afraid to be a bit "strenuous" with them!
It is difficult to diagnose the reason for noises you haven't had the opportunity of hearing, of course.

Very true. Like i said i can't see/feel any obvious play jacked up using my meat tools (hands & arms). I'll see if the garage can find anything before replacing top mounts.The clonk noise as well as the wobble could actually both come from the lower arm rubber bush too of course, and, as Steve says, it could also be either of the two ball joint in the wishbone, causing both clonk and wobble.

Yes, a couple of zonking great tyre-levers are the best bet.
