    Hey guys, just got the car back from transmission shop last week. Last couple days I've noticed from a dead stop if I put 1/4 throttle down I'll hear a small clunk noise. Similar to having a basketball in the trunk or something that rolls. Sounds more towards the right or middle front of the car. Any ideas?

    Trans shop is in eastern wa, like 2hrs away, I grabbed the braces in the engiybay and rocked the engine there is a bit of play, I also noticed the coolant reservoir has some play in it as I removed it last weekend to get to the power steering fluid to check levels and didn't tighten it back all the way. It's very interment at the moment and I don't hear it at all going over bumps...

    Was a loose lug, the shop didn't fasten the abs sensor back on and bent the tab into the rotor so I was hearing screeching when I got it back, seems I didn't do a great job of tightening the lugs back down with the impact. (tight fit with my rims) no wonder the noise was faint. Thanks!
