Anti roll bar drop links are known to move if not tight enough.

Yes, Cant even find a antiroll bar on my T6, I'm not sure what I'm looking for. I'm giving up trying to find the cause of the noise, just going to let a garage take a look. The noise sounds like something metal is snapping, it's driving me mad!!!
Yes, anything is worth a try, will check all the wheel nuts tomorrow first thing. Thanks
Rob is the suspension standard or do you have a lowering kit of some sort in the van
Just started happening? Have you had any mods done recently? Everything ok on full lock. Many possible reasons, take to local garage if you are not sure and they will probably be able to diagnose quickly for a few £.
No suspension is standard as far as I know, only bought the van in July of a private seller, It's made the banging noise since then but steadily got worst. I know it sounds daft but I thought in the beginning it was something loose inside the van.
Yes my next step is a local garage, it's who do you trust not to rip me off.
Could just be something loose and getting worse. Bush wear etc. Where are you based? Not all garages are out to rip you off just some.get bad press on forums but i know what you mean. Where do you go for mot's can you trust them? We allow customers in when we lift on ramp on first inspection so they can see what we are doing as long as you don't get in the way i cant see another place having an issue with this. Just ask for an inspection to identify the problem at first stage. Call a few garages and have a chat, you will get a feel of who sounds genuine etc. Cheers
Great advice
P.s. when is mot due and was there any advisories or comments on last mot relating to this problem
Looks like OP is in Preston.
The ARB drop links, if lose, can make a proper clank that can be felt through the floor with your feet! (IYSWIM).

just a thought, pobably something simple. more than likely drop link or lower ball joint. Simple fixes. Cheers
I spoke to ADS and I'm booking our T6 in for diagnostics in January, they charge £85 a hour, expensive, but if they find the problem and sort it out, then I'm happy. Thanks RobADS, Preston, Lancashire - mechanic / garage
