X1 E84 - Front end noise

Hi guys

I have just bought a second car, a 2015 X1 2.0d SDrive.

The car has covered 57k miles now and since I have had it, the front end seems to have a knock, not a metallic knock..almost like something is just loose. This is more apparent at low speeds over bumps

I had the car on a ramp today and the radius arms appear to have a fair bit of play, as in I car rock these with my hand pressure.

I have not really been under one of these in the past and I know its hard to advise with the explanation given, the only other thing I can add is that I can feel it with my heel through the floor

Does the radius arm or wishbone bushes sound like the culprit or are they common for anything else in the front end that would give the symptoms I am experiencing?

Thanks all in advance
