hey guys, i need some help on something. my car makes this knock noise after i ingage 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear and also when i let off the gas.
it sounds like somethin moves when the engine makes its natural movement or when the car jerks a little. im not really sure what it is. i havent put it on a lift yet but im going to try this week. this started after i replaced my clutch in july, it does happen everytime but enough to make me want to look into it and it seems to be a little louder then b4. im not sure if it is a mount or maybe and axel being jerked i really dont kno and would appriciate any advice if anyone has had this problem in the past or might kno what it is. -------------------- st205 powered ss3 coupe

I had the same problem a year or so ago. My rear mount bolt was just plain missing...and the mounts were in pretty bad shape. I just slapped some Kirkosaurus mount inserts in the front and rear mount which was really easy and it solved the problem and then some.
So yeah, I would say it is more than likely your rear motor mount. -------------------- 2006 BMW 330i - 6 Speed - Dinan Stage 1

Do u have a lot of vibration with just the front and rear inserts? -------------------- st205 powered ss3 coupe
