Does your R8 'knock' over bumps...

A while ago I posted about a knocking noise going over bumps. Sounded kind of like a large mass moving about, like a battery or whatever. Just had my 09 V8 Coupe for 18k service and asked them to look for it.

Turns out it was a failed rear Mag Ride damper, changed both and the knock is gone. The ride is transformed, when I first got it one of the things that impressed me most was how good the ride was for a perf car. Over time this damper must have been failing and giving duff info to the Mag Ride control unit. Now it rides like it used to - if yours knocks over bumps, suggest it is worth checking?

Very useful information.
