noise that sometimes hear from my car
I have only heard this noise a few times. two times at work when I was parked in the back, once at a friends, and I think another time at a light. Sounds like something hits the underside of the car once and makes noise that goes thump, and I feel it too. When it does it, I have started the car(except the time at the light), and I am about to move and I hear/feel the thump. Its not all the time after, its just happened on few times this week.

I hope one of your motor mounts aren't broke or weak. when i had my 91 taurus, one of the mounts when bad and the engine would lift out of the bay slightly and slam back down. aka = thump

Might be a little bit of slack in your drive line. I get it too some times, Im pretty sure it is a loose driveshaft. Does it feel/sound like its right beneath you? If so, thats probably what it is. I guess there are two screws that you need to tighten down.... at least thats what the tranny shop said they did as they charged me $80 labor [:@]

No harm in checkin the driveshaft, mine gives me plenty of weird sounds, adn the looser it gets the more you will hear it, eventually getting a pop every time you shift or put in the clutch, but its an easy fix. for your sake, I hope thats what it is. the one one sounds scary [:'(]

you could also check your sway bars (thats another problem I had) ya need to locktite them if they come off for any suspension mods, but it gives a similar sound. just a thought

Anyone checking the transmission mount? I've never heard of one failing, but I'm sure its possible.
