Front "thunk" -- clarification & help, please
Car: 06 GT convertible, auto trans, 14k miles, original owner
Issue: Single "thunk" from front end. Only happens when going forward after a complete stop.
I've just read through the 99-page "front suspension thunk" thread, but I think my problem is different. It's NOT a repeating "thunk, thunk, thunk" when driving over bumps. It's just a single "thunk" that happens after I come to a full stop, then proceed ahead. It sounds like a knuckle striking a heavy coffee table. Not sure how long it's been happening, but I only noticed it about a week ago.
Anyone know what I'm talking about? Thanks in advance.

I have an 07 GT w/auto and hear the same thing! It has happend 3 times in 3 months. So far it has only happens after parking for awhile, then occures within 5 feet of starting out. It is a single thump. Sounds and feels like you ran into something (baby, dog, etc). Makes my heart stop everytime.

Manual trans?
If so you are probably hearing the great 2 piece drive shaft we have.

Is that what the thunk is? I get a single thump after I start the car most of the time. Just figured it was one of those things as it's never affected performance or ride......
