Also, if I press the brake hard it knocks slightly. The steering is fine and has no play and the engine mounts are perfect. I was thinking it could be drive shafts. But I’m unsure and on a limited budget.

Hi,

This vehicle isn't offered in the US, but I will try my best to help.

First, is it loud enough for you to record and upload for me to hear? If it is, please do that so I can hear it.

Next, when a CV joint/axle fails, often times you will hear a clicking sound when turning or putting a load on it. Take a look through this link and see if it seems to mirror what you experience:

Also, have you checked to make sure there are no worn or broken bushings on the steering components or suspension components?

Let me know.
