  • knocking sound

    i've got this problem that i can't seem to figure out. any time i make a fast left turn from a complete stop, i get this constant rapid knocking until i straighten up. it doesnt do it if i turn real easy. it seem to be coming from under my center console.. any ideas what it could be...

    thanks alot guys

    The center console clunk is the transmission mount going bad, usually. But why it would do so under a turn doesn't make sense. If it was the transmission mount, it should knock under acceleration.

    Stranger things have been known to happen.

    The exhaust could be loose and clanging against the body.

    Best thing to do would be to take it to Brake Check, Midas etc. and have them put the car on a lift (no charge) and see if anything is immediately apparent.
