Knocking noise is almost always a loose weight. There could be a more inaccessible weight on the front or underneath the main drum. With the machine disconnected from the mains and the lid off can you replicate the noise by shaking the outer drum from side to side? Other than that noises can come from so many places. All the ones I can think of are in this article Noisy washing machine solutions
