Front-end clunk when load changes

Hi everyone,

I have a 2012 Skoda Superb 2.0 TDI 170 DSG, FWD, 250,000 km with an annoying clunk from the front, felt mostly through the floor.

It happens when accelerating, releasing the throttle, braking or sometimes cornering. It usually clunks once when the load changes direction.

I can also reproduce it while driving in N and braking.

The problem gets progressively worse after driving a few kilometers. It can be almost absent when starting cold, then becomes more

frequent and noticeably stronger after 10–15 km.

There are no vibrations while driving, but when the clunk happens, I can clearly feel the knock through my feet/floor.

Both front driveshafts have just been replaced with GKN units, with no change at all.

DSG/differential and engine mounts have already been checked by workshops.

My next suspects are front control arm bushes or subframe movement.

Has anyone experienced something similar?

Thanks!

Xavier, Switzerland
