Update: Just got back from the SC today. Went for test drive with the foreman and managed to replicate the knocking 'kruk' sound when going over bumps. I also complained about thin roof very noisy during heavy rain. Outcome is - they believe the front lower arm is the culprit for the knocking sound. They will order the front lower arm for the knocking sound and also 'roof silencer' for the noisy roof (I believe this must be some insulation material). Once the parts arrive, they will arrange for appointment, but I would need to leave the car there for 1-2 days to fix these 2 issues..... Hopefully they know what they are doing...  thumbup.gif

I am the one that complained at Facebook Toyota, they have changed the upper engine mounting to year 2003 model and it has finally solved the knocking sound problem. But strangely why only certain batches have this type of problem whereas other batches can accept the current new vios mounting.

Actually i forgot to ask clearly. The actual knocking sound was from upper engine mounting or top/upper absorber mounting? As i knew,dugong experienced knocking sound which from top/upper absorber mounting there. Hmmm............

They actually changed the upper engine mounting to the Vios year 2003 parts. Absorbers are okay but don't know why certain batches only have problems like that.
