weird "knocking" sound..

lately i am hearing a light "knocking" sound inside the car.. i thought it's the air suspension when i'm setting it to low(est), or the seat.. noticed it when the car is idle (neutral).. "tok, tok, tok"..

is it a warning re: cardan shaft? it's intermittent.. sometimes i'd be just sitting there, car running = nothing.. sometimes it just comes up... not even sure if i can replicate this if i take this to the dealership (arrgghh.. $$$$ again!!!)

anybody have an idea? thanks..

thanks for the links spinny..
there seems to be no definite resolution - other than the mention of bad coils..
not sure if the sound is from the dash, middle console - in the gear, or switches for the suspension.. if it's the heater, then maybe (??), been set to 80F since it's cold in the mornings when i take my daughter to school..

I have not had the brakes done yet. Long story short we come home from a vacation and the breaks did not make a sound. so i am going to wait until the wear sensor goes off.

I had a knocking also about 4 months ago. it sounded like it was coming from the rear when i was backing out of the garage in the mornings. Only after i put it in reverse and started out. It has since disappeared.

Ghosts/gremlins i guess.


Do they have a DYNO? i have not found anyone with a mustang DYNO(AWD) so i can buy and test the IPD
