Issues need help I'm having some serious issues with my car right now, anyone help me out? I've got some serious knock noises coming from the engine or drivetrain. The noise is only there when i go from a stop or low rpm. If the car is in neutral I can rev it all day without a problem, low or high rpm. First I thought it was a bearing going bad, but someone told me that if that was the case the knock would be there even in neutral, he thought it could be clutch, pressure plate related. I dont know how long the clutch or pressure plate have been on the car. Any ideas?

need more info. Could be your engine or trans mounts. Could be the torque arm mount. Could be something bad with your u-joints,drive shaft, or rearend. is it knocking like a engine firing wrong/bad kinda knock? or more of a clunking noise when you start to move it??? really tough to troubleshoot without more information.

I guess it would be more of a clunking noise when I start to move, I can eliminate the trans mount because that is less then a year old. It doesnt sound like its coming from the back of the car more of the front of the car. Would an engine knock be present in neutral and underload?
