still knocking

it's not the spare wheel; not that sort of noise, plus I've also checked how tight it is... and I've removed it at one point too.
I beleive the pad retainers are fitted. 2 shims on the back of the pad and the two metal pieces that go on the carrier are all present. Noise sounds more solid than that. if it wasnt due to the fact i've changed the shocks already, i'd swear it's a knocking shock.... it has a rather solid noise about it

i'll be grabbing a spanner at the weekend again - the only thing that comes to mind that i haven't checked is the rear strut bar in the boot.
I seem to be having the exact same problem as you! The knocking is terrible and the back end feels a little wavey when driving around but everything is tight and seems well! Did you ever get to the bottom of it in your case?
