    Front upper arm - usually you get knocking noise on every pothole etc. from one particular side. Something similar to failed arb bushes, but from one area (left or right).
    Rear upper arm - usually you get feeling that car rear end is traveling too much whilst cornering and slight knock sound on bumpy road from rear from particular side.
