Hi mate. I sent the video to both mark black and Andy Cochrane who are both highly recommend as Renault sport specialists and both have told me 100% bottom ball joint and that’s without actually seeing The car in person, I asked about the top joint and they said the top joint hardly ever wears, that’s not saying yours hasn’t tho but It’s more than likely Gonna be the bottom joint. These are a pain as Renault will usually only sell the whole hub with the balljoint ready pressed in and their £256 per side for just the hubs on Renault part direct so that’s why iv been frantically ringing around and emailing trying to find a specialist that can just change the balljoint. What part of the country are you from? The midlands seems to be a good area for specialist who can do this.

Just been googling the hell out of Renault specialists, seen there's plenty Midlands wise, seen one in Northwich which is an hour away from me, 'northwest performance' priced the part up, it's only £60-70 but the job looks a right pain in arse, thing is I don't just want anybody doing it coz rekon if you damage carrier it's gunna get pricey
