Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Have you guys experienced any "clunking" type of noise in the engine area when you step on the gas pedal? Somtimes when stepping on the gas pedal from a stop, the car will not respond immediately and the car will jerk a little and create a "clunking" noise. It feels like something was dropped underneath the car.
Sounds like the dual mass flywheel is past its best. A mere �600!
My mechanic told me that the dual mass flywheel is for manual car and mine is a tip. My mechanic also told me that the rear sway bar is tight. Also, the U/CV joints and the engine and transmission mounts are ok. What esle do you think that may have caused this noise?
How 'bout a wrench or socket left in by a tech?? Happens in airplanes and hospitals!!!
They leave socket wrenches in patients at hospitals?
Thrust bearing, drive shaft bearing, loose exhaust or a wrench left in piston No.3 chamber. Anyway, if your tech can tell you that i isn't the sway bar or CV joints, engine/transmission mounts etc, why can;t he tell you what the clunk is?
They can leave a socket in you at the hospital if they are working on your "crankshaft" and they need a lot of torque, though normally it is a sponge or some small surgical instrument. Point is....even a team of pros in the operating room at the hospital can make the same mistake as a mechanic at the airport and leave something unintended behind. Aircraft mechainics normally have a numbered marker or a slot in foam in the tool drawer for each tool. If one is empty when the job is finished.....well....the job is not complete. I'd be willing to bet that a tech at some dealership has left a tool in the engine bay of a P-car before!
Its your rear sway bar --- probably needs tightening.
Thanks, guys. The dealer has already looked at the sway bar and they said it is fine. I am going to ask them to have a look at the suspension. Anyway, the car doesn't make the clunking noise continuously. The clunking sound will only happen once when I accelerate. Therefore the bearings and transfer box problems are ruled out. Any other thoughts?
Anyone?
