Sometimes the noise is activated when going over a bump. It's proving difficult to find the cause. I have noticed on start-up in hot conditions that the car (Fabia Mk2 1.2 44kw) shows a cold engine symbol, so wondering if it might be the engine heat sensor?

 

The noise seems to be coming front the front n/s wheel.

 

Anyone out there with some knowledge about this would be appreciated.

That’s pretty vague, not much to go on. 

 

Noises coming from the wheel area going over bumps, anti roll bar drop link would be a good place to start. 

The cold light might just come on and go off very quick. Do you mean a single "Click" over the bump or a continual "Tick-tick-tick, once it starts? 

Ad Techie says, link bars could be ever so slightly loose so as to not even be able to move them by hand, (The car weighs a ton and a half). Could be other bushes/links/shocks/springs or something like the brake disc shields hitting the disc, etc. This is usually just a case of pushing it away from the disc a little. Sometimes a stone gets trapped there and they grind/tick a bit.
