- VE S2 SS Sportwagon
Hi guys I'm new here so please be gentle
I have a 3 month old SS sportwagon S2 and when ever the vehicle is cold or not driven for around an hour or two I get this noise when accelerating through about 30km/h. The noise is hard to explain, it is like a faint "clunk" and for some reason you can feel it through the accelerator pedal like it's coming from under the car or definitely from the front. It does not appear to be a gear change as it's in between, auto tranny and in drive. Sometimes if I pull out of the drive way and go slowly up the road after the first noise if I slow down and re accelerate through 30km/h it will go again, but that's it for the rest of the trip.
I have had cars like a Mitsubishi 380 that do something similar but it was more of a longer noise that was staggered like a pump going through a few cycles. This car also did it when cold and accelerating through about 20km/h.
Everything seems fine with the SS. No other dramas.
Has this happened to anyone else or do you know what it is?
Thanks
Benny
