Front end suspension knocking

Hey guys, i've been noticing a knocking sound from my front end suspension everytime I drive over a bump or any imperfections in the road. I've never hit the curb or anything so my alignment is fine. I noticed it a lot more in the winter. It sounds a little better now that it's getting warmer out but I would really like to get it fixed so it doesn't happen again. I've been running my FK silverline X coils for a little over 2 years now. What does it seem like I have to replace? Thanks for any help. :thumbup:

Check your subframe bolts.

If they're loose, buy new ones and retorque them.
If you want to eliminate the noise for good though, buy something like the TyrolSport deadset kit

As always thanks for the help guys. When I get a chance I'll check and see if anything is loose under there.
