    Wink Another one of those noises

    Hey guys,

    Had this problem a while and it has come to more concern recently...

    When I start my car and begin to drive, I'll get to about 15km/h rolling and I'll hear this...noise...from my car. It's honestly like a fart noise haha, I got no other way of describing it. Kinda makes a weird vibration noise for about half a second. I can feel it in the pedals, and what has alarmed me is that today when braking down a hill, i heard the noise and my brake pedal seized up a bit, which made me think I should probably see what the noise is..
    Just for reference, it makes the noise either in gear or in neutral, doesn't make a difference. Just when I start my car up and start rolling.


    Anyone got a clue? haha...

    I'm not sure mate, it only happens ONCE which is when i take off after turning my car on for the day (if i leave it for a bit then come back to it then it will happen again) I originally thought it was clutch related because it happened at the same time i shifted and I have a bad clutch problem anyways...

    Sometimes busted engine mounts can do weird things like make your pedals feel strange etc, might be worth checking.

    Warped disc rubbing? (or something in the pad) which you only notice at low speed?
