Has anyone noticed any knocking when going uphill slowly? My car experiences this and I was wondering if it was normal. It isn't severe, but definitely sounds like it's a diesel car when going uphill at slow speeds...

Mine is the same as yours with the VR-X bits and I get nothing like that, as smooth going steep uphill at 100km/h as it is doing 50 on level ground.

Two questions..

1. Does it sound like a tin of bolts rattling around.?

2. What fuel are you using.?(LPG,E85,91,95,98)

Driveshaft(s) !!!!!!!

That was my thought too but I've already said that once this week.

I had an issue that sounds similar to this, holding ~60km/h about 2000 rpm on a hill it was most noticeable, however it built up to be quite violent knocking/even shaking of the car.
it sounded like it was coming from the rear of the car.

I took the car in for a transmission service (automatic) and asked the mechanic about it. He suggested it could be 'converter shudder' he said it wasn't common in Magna's but he suggested using 'instant shudder fix'

No more shuddering :)
