Weird knock noise when moving slowly

[flight1us]

First and foremost hope all are staying safe and well,


has anyone experienced getting road debris stuck in weird places under their GTi, recently ran over what looks to be the aftermath of a collision on the highway( had to pull to the side due to an ambulance passing) and i believe i may have picked something up while merging back on the highway , the knock sounds like it is coming from the wheel hub area currently on 18" Detroits.

I have crossed some pretty wild creek beds and had a lot of river rocks in my subframe. I do not have underbelly pan

I assume you also got sick of having to pull it off every few weeks to work on it? LOL
Mine has been good for over a year now and likely going to install a top and then grab alum belly pan.
Have you got under the car yet. Easiest way to do it is park front wheel up on a curb so you have room to slide up under there and have a peek

Just put 1 front wheel up on the curb, I usually do it at the end of my driveway as its easier to get up the curb.

i was gonna take the wheels off and see if maybe anything got stuck in between the wheel and rotor or behind.

Have you driven in reverse? If something is wedged in there this might help it come loose
Edit: I'm not saying get on the freeway maybe a bit of reverse
