Hello everyone i have a loud knocking noise that happens when i put my car into gear and when i speed up as soon as i take my foot of and it changes gear it knocks loudly and if i keep it in second gear when i put my foot down suddenly it does it and if i take my foot of suddenly it does it. i can feel the knock when it does it

what could this be? could something be loose? it doesn't do it when i baby my car around

there is also a tingy noise when i speed up with my foot down. could this be to do with the other noise?

I don't really know much about cars but the thing that sort of runs alongside the exhaust and turns when you change gears is where it sounds like its coming from. if that helps lol

Its deffinitely not from the engine :)

NP it could be a heap of things but without more info its all going to be pure conjecture :) it might just be engine/trans mounts or something internal in the trans ect ect

I would say it is a worn universal joint in the tail shaft.
