You may want to take it back to the dealer as I guess your car should still be under warranty.
I had the same symptoms on my 90" a year or so ago, was a problem with the rear diff, it was eventually replaced under warranty and now knocking is gone. See this thread or this one as well, hope this helps... |

Diff, driveshaft flanges, A frame joint, trailing arm bushes etc., etc are all possibles but usually confined to high miles / older LR's. At only a year or two old it ought to still be under warranty. Steve.

drive flanges? Also the MT82 gearbox makes a pretty loud bang when changing gears. --

Had sent it to my local dealer for this issue and was told that the knocking sound was due to a faulty rear axle.... They refused to carry out the replacement of the faulty part because my warranty for the entire drivetrain and suspension system had been voided as i am using 33" mt tires and wheel spacers.... They claimed that these tires and spacers put additional stresses on the axles and drivetrain....

Thanks for all replies.... Think the rattle in the attached video is quite similar to what i have.... Will get my workshop mechanic to check for any loose roll pin in the rear diff... Hope this is the real source of the rattle....

had my rear drive shafts and flanges replaced after reporting the same sound, thats on a 40 ,000 mile 110. also half a dozen upper shock bushes in that time, which can make a bit of a noice. |
