Sounds more like its engine mount related. Does it knock when going round corners??

yeah still knocks when turning corners

if it is the drive shaft you will hear it when turning a certain way while applying the power. Doubt both have gone. The noise will stip when you remove your foot from the accelerator. If that makes sense.

yeah its more so when i turn right. and any sort of power going straight i can feel it.

i had a new driveshaft put in 6 months ago aswell :dapprove:

have a look under the car to see if any grease is seaping out of the CV joint (at the hub)

As an idea - just worked out with strong vibration, was caused by inner CV Joint of the right driveshaft. One of 3 bearings in the joint failed.

This!

Caused by being too low, I've done two in the last 6 year!

yep, being low ruins the lifespan/expectancy
