I can't really say where the sound is coming from, but >> it does sound similar to a heavy relay engaging so there may be something >> in >> what you say. >> Interesting. I have an MX5 NC and thought the clunk was the brake calipers shifting after having the car sit for a while. It does it when I drive away (after backing out of the garage) but, from memory, I only notice it on the first drive of a day. I will pay more attention to it. I suppose it could be the trunk/boot lock engaging. It has done it since the car was new three years ago. The car is driven about once a week so the brake rotors get plenty of time to form a slight layer of rust between uses. Regardless, I don't think this is anything that needs to be "fixed". |

I have scouted the internet for hours trying to find the reason for the thumping noise on my 2007 Mazda3. As you said it would only pop the noise when moving from standing after the engine was started. Speed has to reach about 20km per hour. Same issue while reversing. It only sounded once and will not pop the noise again until the engine is off and restart. The noise appear to be in the engine compartment. I can drift for a long while at low speed, if below 20km without the noise popping. I will put it down to ABS, Thanks Alan Cheers Tony |
