Default 05' pathfinder Knocking/rattle noise need help to figure it out

I'm located in Illinois suburb outside Chicago. Looking for some expert or knowledgable opinion what the problem can be before taking it to a mechanic and getting them to do trial and error.

Knocking and rattling are two different noises and it's hard to diagnose without hearing it. One common source for a knocking noise is the front sway bar bushings. The split in the bushing is directly behind the bar and the sway bar will end up knocking against the crossmember. Nissan updated the bushings and put the split diagonally to keep this from happening. Best part is the pair of bushings is under $10 from Nissan. Rattling would lead me to check the exhaust shield for broken clamps, also very common on these vehicles.
