Have they checked the sway bar links and upper spring seats?It could also be an axle shaft.I have seen the axles go bad before and have slop in them.

UPDATE :clap:

Had it checked at volvo main dealer and turns out it the centre section exhaust. Its was noted on the last service as the baffles having gone. It rattles slightly on idle sometimes but apparently its causing this knocking sound.

MANY THANKS
