Major knocking/tapping sound while rolling
OK i got a major problem here......I was on my way home tonight and my car felt a little funny it was driving wierd. So i slowed down to see what the deal was and i heard this AWFUL banging noise. It is a reptative knock but doesnt get louder. So i got to my apartment stopped and looked around and everything looks fine. I made sure everything was tight. But i've notice the noise happens when i am at a slow roll and pressing in the clutch and also when i let out but less when i let off the clutch and it happens in 1-3 its not gear specific. Anyone ever have similar problem? I am planning on taking to the dealer in the morning but ever since the last time i took it there my car has felt funny. I had been noticing a small tap at a roll but thought i was just being paranoid now its the same tapping but more audible. any help would be greatly appreciated.THANKS

i'm not sure because this has never happened to me, nor have i ever witnessed it, but could this be engine knock? If it is, it is not a good idea to drive because you can detonate your engine and become quite costly. But like i said, i really don't know, this is just a guess. Hopefully someone with a little more knowledge will see this and be able to help you. Hope it goes ok man...
OK got my car back already.....i was so ____ed when they told me what it was. The people that put on my wheels didnt tighten the lugs. My wheels have caps over them and like 2-3 lugs came off and were bouncing around in there. It sounded bad. Never taking my car back to them again. Cant even tighten lug nuts.
