Getting a really odd knocking noise when reversing my car out the drive when I turn the wheel fully, only seems to happen when the car is cold?? Any ideas?!

Were the cv joints checked when the boots were replaced?
Does sound like its a cv joint that's gone with the description especially if the boots have been changed as dirt could of got into them when the boots were split.

Had a look at the top mounts? How loud is the knocking? Could it be the springs running against one another? Is the car low low...?
