Rattling problem during acceleration after replacing half-shafts

Hello, I have a Peugeot 3008 and after replacing the right and left half-shafts, I still hear a knocking sound when turning, which resembles a problem with the CV joint. We checked the front suspension arms and everything seems fine. On a straight road the car behaves perfectly, there is no looseness or knocking. Has anyone had a similar problem and what could be the cause of this rattling when accelerating?

Check the condition of the CV joint boots to ensure they are not damaged or leaking grease, as this can lead to premature wear of the joints. If the boots are intact, inspect the wheel bearings for any signs of wear or damage. Let me know how it goes or if you have any further questions!

Everything is healthy there, the half-shafts are brand new, and there is still the same knocking when turning, like a CV joint.

Inspect the engine and transmission mounts for any signs of wear or damage, as faulty mounts can cause knocking noises during turns. If the mounts appear fine, it might be worth checking the anti-roll bar links and bushings for any play or wear. Let me know if you need further assistance or have any questions!
