Final damage report :
Service 1: Front left shock, front left and right bump stops
Chasing persisting front end knock noise :
Service 2: inspected and reinstalled engine/gearbox mounts, replace strut tops - no win
Service 3: replace steering rack - no win, mazda engineer has a listen and orders:

Mate can you describe this noise?
