It is an auto, and doesn`t happen all the time. It has been to the mechanics but nothing stands out , I have a feeling it could be the tranny but it is intermittent and appears only in 1st.has anybody had this problem?

Put it in drive and foot on the brake and put a bit of power down. So the drive train loads up. Do the same in reverse. This often shows up drive shaft problems. May be other things but worth a try.

Could be the ABS priming.Both my BA & BF did it - but it would be after I drove up the driveway, slowed down then turned on to the street and drove off.

My car does it also. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/59521-noise-under-car-on-take-off/#findComment-908013 Share on other sites More sharing options...
