Title: Strange knocking noise?
Post by: Thedude74 on April 12, 2011, 07:58:16 pm

Hi all,

I have noticed that when the car is under load (i.e. Hard driving) that there is a knock/clunk noise coming from what sounds like under the center console.

It knocks/clunks when you break hard from speed or when turning hard into corners.

Does this sound like the exhaust is knocking against the chassis/underneath of the car?

I would be really grateful if anyone can shed any light on this or if you have experienced anything similar?

Many thanks
Matt

I would get your engine mounts inspected, and get the car up on ramps to have a look under the car, hope it is a easy fix.
