Default Sometimes when I start the car in the morning...

I hear a knocking noise coming from the rear of the car. It almost sounds like there is someone in my trunk trying to get out!

Im think maybe it is exhaust related... Anyone else experience the same noise or have any ideas?!

Default YES!!

Not especially when I start it, but when I stop at a red light with the stereo turned down I can hear it.

I was going to mention it at my 10k service in a month or two.

it's probably the gas tank noisy many of us hear. The tank is adjusting to temperature changes.

Default Mine does the same thing...

in the morning after I have just started it. My worthless service person said it might be the fuel pump and to just keep an eye on it.
