Default something is wrong with my car.

Whenever I start up my car the car starts up just fine but I noticed on start up sometimes there is this clunking noise for like 1 second. Have anyone else dealt with anything like this before and what did you do to fix it. I'm not even sure what's wrong but the car is kinda sluggish.

Funny thing is I started my car by remote start and I hear nothing from the engine I can only hear a thump sound only on start up of my car when inside.

Can you tell where the sound is coming from, and does it happen every time you start? If you can only hear it inside the car I'd focus on the transmission and rear end. It seems like you should hear them make a noise from outside the car, but without laying under the car when starting it that may not actually be the case

It's actually somewhere by the had pedal I'm not sure if its the transmission fluid or transmission mount. Whichever one I hope its a cheap fix and doesn't cost to much money
