whilst you check for a broken spring, check the shock absorber for signs of a leak, or completeley dry!

Hi, Banging like this can be due to worn stabiliser link rods on the anti-roll bar. Each rod has a ball joint on each end which ware out in time causing a knocking noise. You will need to replace both sides at the same time cause if one side is damaged the other wont be far behind. I recently purchased a pair of these from Ebay of all places. Trust me I saved a lot of money too. Check them and if needed replace them.
