The problem is solved and it turned out to be somewhat surprising.

Majority of the noise was down to the torque tube being lose. A previous specialist had probably not torqued up the bolts correctly and they had worked lose.

Hopefully, this is a one-off and others won’t experience a similar issue.

Needless to say I had the rest of the car checked for other bodges.

A previous 'specialist'? I think we know who that is...

To be fair I don’t know who is responsible. I would have to go through the old receipts to see who worked on this area previously.

I also can’t rule out PO’s attempts at home maintenance.

However, I’m sure I’m not the only one who is finding that poor workmanship is becoming more widespread. Finding a good garage is becoming a real challenge.
