Jorn .....welcome


Allot of the time a "clonking" sound" is heard when the engine shakes more then normal upon starting or stopping. Its usually the exhaust system banging some place. Did she shake more than normal? The smoke could mean you have a bad GP and if a motor mount was not up to par, you got the shakes then a clonking and some smoke. Anyway thats the way it went with my car. Next time you hear the clonking pay attention to how much she shakes. Mine was LOUD and deffently got my attention.
