Knocking sound during higher speeds
So I take it you already checked the engine oil? What kind of knocking noise? Shallow or deep? How many miles? What has been do to the suspension? Or is it original? Really hard to diagnose vehicle noises w/o seeing it Weird think is you said sometimes, so is this under a load or what? Bumpy roads, ect? I'd figure out the engine oil pressure via a mechanical gauge first. Then have a look at the suspension......Really best to take it to your mechanic/shop as they can diagnose it best.
Very well could be, but that'd sound like a shallow grinding noise, getting louder as speed & time....The OP mentioned a knocking noise.
This is a tough one without some more clues.
But since you said "knock" instead of "thump," I'd guess it could be strut-related, or maybe a wheel bearing as suggested above.
It could be lots of things. It could be a loose or broken or [missing rubber grommet] exhaust hanger. Motor mount, maybe.

If you lay down under the driver's side just inside the rear tire you'll see the plastic tank guard and feel if it's top is loose and hitting the subfloor above. Mine was (an 07). And I could see where the factory installed a foam sticky tape to keep it attached or quiet. Anyway, put some new foam tape in there and it will stop making noise.
