Hi,
I also have a 2008 model.
Had the rattling /knocking sound also.
Was adjusted at first service but has come back,not to the same level though.

I have a recently purchased 2008 320. Love the boat but when motoring, I get a noisy "rattle" from 2100 to 2900 rpms.? It has been suggested that the shaft alignmrnt may be off.?? According to the manual, the alignment is adjusted by? motor mounts. Has anyone done this alignment themselves and is it a DIY type job?

Thanx
