The noise only comes when the gas is pressed in the beginning and sometimes when slowing. Do you have any idea of what it might be. I have 1999 Chevy Caviler. Thanks carjunky Enthusiast Oct 5, 2005, 5:49 AM Post #2 of 4 (3676 views) Re: Funny Knock when gas is pressed Sign In Nosha, Does this noise come from the engine, or does it sound like its under the car or near a wheel? Any more information will make it easier to trouble shoot your problem. Nosha New User Oct 5, 2005, 9:54 AM Post #3 of 4 (3667 views) Re: Funny Knock when gas is pressed Sign In The noise comes from the front of the car it seems. I cant hear it coming from the tires.

You said a knock, I know they are hard to describe. Further questions, Ideas: *Some exhaust parts can rust and make noise, I would call them rattles, but can you check that out to rule it out? *You said you can hear this on deceleration which kind of rules out spark knock, or detonation. Check for loose air cleaner parts and things underhood. *Any recent repairs or work? Those are areas to look. * Of course make sure oil and fluids are full and correct. *Does braking or cornering have any effect? Good luck, we're here to help. If you feel it's dangerous please get some local help.
