Hello, I have same problem slow speeds only between 10 and 35 MPH.
Are the shock bushing part of shocks?
I have cats system and I replaced rear shocks and did not do anything to noise. Almost like a hollow long piece of metal noise. Been on rack 4 or 5 times looking for loose pipes and/or parts nothing. Replaced a broken tie rod did nothing.
Only good thing is can't hear it when top is down and since top is down 95% of the time!
Took to dealership, they have no idea! Surprise, Surprise!!
Let us know if you correct the problem, Please.
Thanks and
Happy Motoring...

Here is how I did it without the tool, a bit more work and you need to find someone with a press.

FWIW - I had the exact problem you described on my 07 XK with CAT suspension. Everyone and his brother swore the knock was from the rear of the car.
In a seemingly unrelated event, the steering seemed ever so slightly vague and right front shock was discovered to be leaking fluid and replaced. BOTH PROBLEMS SOLVED Sound is a strange thing on these cars.
