More knocking, now onto my coilovers..

I swear problems will never get out of my car, now recently as I turned out of my friends underground parking lot my coils started to knock more heavily than before. Yes I understand adjusting the damping to soft will alleviate the usual stiffness sound, but this is completely different and it's only coming from the driver side front suspension.

Occurs at around 0:10 in the video.

Also maybe check that your preload is still set where you expect it
