Default Suspension noise

Can anyone help? Whengoing over bumps in the road, the front drivers wheel feels slack and gives off a loud thud almost as if its loose. Have had a look underneath and appears to be nothing obvious. Would be most grateful for any advice.

common issues are sway bar bushings and the sway bar links. both have modified updated parts for noises. maybe also a bad wheel bearing?

I have an 02 4matic wagon with self leveling shocks. How do I bleed the system when I replace the shocks?

Check your lower ball joints and upper control arm bushings, if either are leaking that is probably your problem, we change them routinely.
