Obnoxious suspension chatter, help needed S70 1998

Hello. I own a 98 S70 t-5 which is def. showing its age. I have a problem with my front right suspension (or so I think). when going at extremely low speeds (idle to 20mph) a knocking sound can be heard in the front right strut area. This noise is combined with a sloppy feel of the suspension. Over the last few months I've had multiple parts replaced under my extended warranty, but none of these have fixed the problem. The areas already replaced are:

Sway bar and sway bar bushings replaced
Stabilizer link replace
Upper spring seat replaced
Front wheel hub replaced (bearings and hub)
3 motor mounts replaced
upper motor mount replaced


any ideas??? i am desperate, and am leaving in a week and want to fix the problem before I return back up north to school.

any suggestions would be most appreciated, my volvo dealer has screwed me to the wall on this one telling me there's nothing wrong...as always!
