MTSuby Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 I feel like I use to know what this meant and I cannot seem to remember... When I shift & am accelerating, or when I use engine compression to slow my speed down, I sometimes get a popping noise coming from under the car. Driveline? Exaust? I just can't seem to remember...Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralDisorder Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Could be a vast number of things - anything from loose leading rods, to bad tranny mounts, to loose axle nuts, to strut tops, to..... etc, etc. I've experienced no fewer than half a dozen reasons for "poping" or "clunking" when taking off. Just the nature of loose suspension components. You'll just have to troubleshoot and try to narrow it down. GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm much more inclined to think exhaust or driveline...Doesn't seem like suspension.. Thanks everybody, I'll check some stuff out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joostvdw Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 if your exhaust is shot (has holes in it) it will make a popping/rumbling sound when you are braking on the motor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
