2008 Impreza 2.5i Clunking noisetristanf 10-08-2009, 09:00 PM Everytime i turn on my 2010 (not sure why i put 2008 in the title) impreza and slowly drive away i hear a clunking sound coming from somewhere in the front. it happens almost everytime i start it up, even if it is warmed up Went to the dealer (car is 4 weeks old) did a test drive and it only did it once for them of course even though we tried almost 10 times. they had no idea what it could be and will take it in for a full day to let it get cold. anyone have any ideas? also, does anyone else experience a slight rumbling when the car is cold and the blue cold engine light is on? i know the car being cold would help to explain that but you'd think that a brand new car would be free from things like that. thanks in advance? NickS10 11-16-2009, 10:25 PM I have the same problem with my Impreza it's a 2009. I have about 12,500 miles on it and it has been making the clunk since new. You can even feel the clunk through the gas pedal. I have not taken it to the dealer because the closest dealer is real bad. Do you also get a loud vibration at 40 – 45 going uphill? I also get a noise when accelerating after a stop it sounds almost like a valve tap but I think it’s a loose heat shield because it does not make the noise if I rev the engine or if cold. Is your Impreza auto or stick? Hopefully someone can help us out with this......I'm seriously thinking about selling the car......... :mad: vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
