Am deemed insane....

My S60 2014 is knocking in the rear boot area mainly nearside. It has a fresh mot and every single mechanical thing has been checked (including new shocks) and there are no issues with that side of things.

It's very much an inside noise. I have attached a video of it. Are there any things I can adjust or check interior wise? Boot, seats, headlining, parcel shelf? I have driven with seats down, floor out, toolkit out but it's still the same.

trailing arms bushes have they been checked as they give off knocking noise

I also have this issue on my v60, rear trailing arm bushes changed along with drop links and ARB bushes but the noise persists, I have resorted to turning up the radio until weather a bit better but if you find it please post back

All bushes have been checked so I'm pretty sure it's inside...
I'm glad I'm not the only one suffering! I will keep trying different things... I reckon it's something under the parcel shelf or something boot related

My V60 does this too.

I saw a forum post where several owners said that packing the tailgate lock with grease fixes this problem. But it's too cold to try...

check the tail gate lock keeper the part on the body it might be loose causeing the tail to rattle on bumps

Try wrapping a bit of electrical tape around the pin of the boot locking mechanism.

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll give them a try...

Tried the tape round the pin but didn't work.. I did adjust the rubber stops on the bottom of the boot to see if it will shut tighter so will see if that works...
