Hi,
I'm a new driver and only picked up my 2000 W Punto 1.2 3dr yesterday so please be patient with me.
I've noticed that when I'm holding the clutch at biting point both for moving forwards and backwards, I get a knocking sound. It seems to be worse though when I'm reversing. I can't really work out where the sounds is coming from (as I said, I only picked it up yesterday so haven't had much time for troubleshooting).
My brother-in-law, who checked the car over, assures me that it's the exhaust knocking due to the vibration. I just wanted to get some more advice and opinions before taking it to a garage.
Is there anything that I can check myself? (remember I'm a newbie)
Many thanks in advance.
