Couple of annoying noises eminating from the wagon.

One is a part time metallic clang from near the front wheels that sounds like a metal rod that is hanging down and pivoted at the top. It doesn't happen all the time but every so often it will do it for a week or two and you here the clang when going over bumps or breaking and accelerating.

The scond one is a real pain and is coming for the rear offside. I thought it may be a shock but I had that one done a short while ago. It is just a rattley, heavy thump when driving over any bumps.

The hood mechansim also seems to be making noise. Not when it is going up or down, but when the roof is on during general driving.

Wondering if anyone has noticed any of these on their cars?

TIA
