I have a 2006 Hyundai Sonata LX and i had the same "knocking" problem. but one day i took everything out of my trunk (including spare tire) and drove real slow, after a few minutes i figured out it is the sloshing of gas in my gas tank. it does no damage to the car and there is pretty much nothing you can do about it, i try to just keep my radio turned up so i can't here it. good luck!

I have a Knock-ka-thunk when making hard right turns. Dealer has been unable to locate it as yet. Now what i have found is a condition where the swaybar has overtravled, driving the passenger side swaybar link into the shock body and denting it. the sway bar also is contacting the lower control arm and touches the coil spring. I have photos of this condition. The dent on the shock body is very noticeable as it has rubbed the paint off and the rub mark is shiny. I do have photos if you can send me you e-mail address I'll send you the pictures. My dealer has not been able to duplicate the condition. I am still working with the dealer to correct this. By the way if you lift the car unloading the suspension the condition the swaybar returns to it's normal position.

cartergs,
 
How hard do you have to turn to get the rub? Will it be encountered in normal driving?
 
Thanks,,,

The rub occurs when I'm making a right turn into a drive way that goes up a hill.
