Popping noise when i first Accelerate- Read below for more

[dscar4u]

OK here is the problem.

I am somewhat mechanically inclined.. not much but a little.. I have had a
cv joint to go out. This doesn’t resemble that in any way. Turning will not
affect this noise. I just replaced the brakes last week… everything looks good
and tight. No loose bearings. Engine is very quite..No noise there.

Could be my engine mounts but when I crank car and rev it up it doesn’t move
much and seems ok. No noise there that I can tell.

When I first take off in the morning about 5mph it sound like some knocks on
the side of my car about 4 times. It will not do it again usually until the
next morning.

It sounds like its coming from the front right side (passenger side). Not
sure. I usually listen to radio on the way home so I only heard it in the
morning but now after research I realize its does it when I leave for home as
well.

Here is what I have narrowed down. I am hoping someone here has seen this before
or knows what I am talking about.

I can best describe the sound like there is someone lying down beside my car
and knocks on the quarter panel with his knuckles. Fait but when paying
attention you can definitely hear it with no problem. Not over the radio
though.

1. I thought it only happened when I left in the morning

2. I could drive from here to NC and it would not do it again...Nothing

3. I would drive down our road and would stop and start again.... Nothing

4. Put car in park and then move it to Drive and accelerate....Nothing

5. Put car in Neutral and stop and then move to drive and
accelerate....Nothing

6. Move car from reverse to Drive then takeoff....Nothing

7. Put car in park and let idle then take off…. Nothing

7. Pulled in to Wal-Mart and went shopping. When I left... It happened
again. 4 knocks

8. During drive home, stops signs, lights, etc....Nothing

9. Next morning leaving for work.... It happened again. 4 knocks

I have now figured out how to duplicate it each time. It doesn’t
matter if it’s cold or hot, in drive or reverse, turning or going straight,
accelerate easy or stomping it. It will only do it if I shut the car down and
then I crank the car and then when I go to take off it will do it again. It
will not do it again until I turn car off and then re-crank it.

Also please note: I drove down my road about 3 mph for about 300 yards.
Nothing...then when I slowly speed up to about 5 or 6.... It happened again. 4
knocks
