Hello everyone. I am new here. I used to have an '04 Sonic Blue GT 40th edition... now I have a 2007 Grabber Orange GT with about 1000 miles now..

Anyhow, I was on the NJ turnpike... I had to pull over to grab something out of the trunk.... Then I had to get back on the turnpike from the shoulder. Of course if you have ever driven on the NJ turnpike, you know I had to accellerate rather quickly to merge. Going about 75-80ish I heard a knocking noise. It was loud enough to hear it over traffic with the window slightly open. I slowed down a bit then it started to go away.

I took the car back to the dealer, they kept it for a day. The shop foreman said he had it up to 100 and he didnt hear any noises. I picked my car up and to make a long story short, I was accelerating from 4th gear and it did it again but went away. I have been trying to recreate it over the last 3 or 4 days and I have not heard it since. I Had the car up to 90ish on the turnpike and no noise.

Anyone know what might have made that knocking noise? The shop foreman at the dealer insists that he never heard any noises when he test drove the car. But I have heard it on 3 different ocasions now.

I am just concerned that I bought a dud and I need to rectify the problem.

thanks for any help
Michelle
