Default Knocking sound on passenger side rear

Hi. I have just noticed a knocking sound on the passenger side rear, only happens when I take my foot off the accelerator. And only if I am accelerating from standstill. Its becoming quite concerning. Only 2 knocks each time I pull away.
Any suggestions or ideas?

Welcome to the forums Philip,

I've moved your question from General Tech Help to X250 forum. This is the place to post technical questions about your model.

Please follow this link New Member Area - Intro a MUST - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the New Member Area - Intro a MUST forum and post some information about yourself and your vehicle for all members to see. In return you'll get a proper welcome and some useful advice about posting to the forum.

Ya, I'm hearing a "thumping" sound emanating from the passenger side when slowly turning right. Can't hear it when car speeds up due to road noise, so don't know if to goes away.
It's timed to wheel revolution, so U-Joint, bearing, bump in a tire, etc., could be related. It doesn't seem to be getting any louder, although I really haven't been hearing it for that long.
My car comes out of original warranty in a month, so maybe I'll take it in and see what they decide to do.

I would also be checking bushes, Not saying that's your problem but is certainly was with mine. I only noticed it at very low-speed .stop then move slightly and the noise was there also on some turns where the car is at an angle like moving off the road to a driveway and you can feel a clunk. I am having all my swing arm, control arm and sway bar replaced on both rear sides.
