Have noticed something strange for a while now. But had the windows down today and really heard it!
If I drive along in first gear to say mid rev range and push the clutch in quickly.
I hear a banging/clatter noise from the front.
Could this be some sort of mount issue?
As the engine has load on it then suddenly none. Which I would expect things to move around. But not a banging clatter.

Is this coming from the clutch itself or do you think from something else in the drive train like drive shafts or bearings? It's a hard one to answer but I have had similar on a Landrover when the splines on the front drive shafts were worn, causing a clunking and general rattly slack feel when not under load.
I also get a banging similar going over bumps at low speed.
I have a feeling its related. Both similar sounding.
Sounds like its coming from the front maybe drivers hand side.
Hard to tell exactly when driving.
Thanks for the reply.
