I know I should be able to work it out but I am stuck trying to figure out what chord the above notes would make I list them above in ascending order and they follow a Asus4 chord.
Appreciate any suggestions.

DminAdd9 makes it clear it doesn't have a flat 7.

Thank you

Context is crucial when naming chords. You need to look at 1. what else is happening at that moment in the arrangements (any other instruments, especially bass, adding notes to this?) and 2. what comes before and after in the progression. Without any additions or surprises in the progression you'd probably see most people calling this Fmaj13 or Fmaj7(add6). Dmin(add9) is also possible. Again, the progression will give you hints. If this comes before some kind of G7 chord, it's Dmin(add9) (ii-V progression). It could also be a rootless Bbmaj7#11 chord. As I said, context is very important here.
