My MX6 was just doing this on the way home. If I stepped on the gas, braked, or turned it would stop. The frequency of the knocking noise would increase with the speed, but seemed louder the slower I was going. The brakes were just done last week. Anyway, in my case the wheel lug nuts were loose, I could just unscrew them by hand! I will be calling the garage tomorrow to let them know.
