Front shock/airbag rattle

Hello I live in France and drive daily several dirt roads with my 07 discovery 3 .When driving slowly there is a rattle I have changed everything else but shocks and air springs so can they give a rattle.?. No leaks or other problems with them so no need to change them .

As you drive dirt roads, maybe stones up between disk and backing plate

Rattle

Mine had this rattle especially as I went over a speed bump or small bumps at low speeds. I changed the sway/(ARB) anti roll bar bushings, front and back and it solved my issue.

Bit of a wild one but try and check your steering rack because the nylon buffer that is behind the large cover nut becomes worn and allows the rack gear to wobble and knock
I had this when going over bumps

LR door puddle projectors (10 mins)
Tinted Bonnet wind deflector (10 mins)
