Hi,

I have 2001 i30 with about 70k miles and all the services done regularly. Since yesterday evening whenever i press accelerator car make very big thundering noise and when i take my feet off the accelerator the sound goes away and this is irrespective of whether i hit the accelerator at 20mph or 70mph. There is no check engine light and RPM looks normal while driving, What can be the possible issue for this noise?

Thanks

Exhaust manifold /pipe seal(s) leaking and/or support broken (pipe touches chassis).

"...feet off the accelerator the sound goes away"
- pressure is up while accel, drops to minimum at idle. Sound=airpressurepulse.
- engine angle changes and piping bends/moves, causing loosened/broken joint(s)s to pry open

Do crawl around to pinpoint, see/hear/feelbyhand the leak while smbdy exercises the gas pedal
