at slow speeds there is a knockin noise from the front. Then at 3200rpm when you let off the accelerator in all gears it sounds like the exhaust is vibratin on the bottom of the car

Could this be the engine mounting?

Thanks

or as mine did was that one of the back box rubbers kept slipping off and was making a HUGE vibrating noise from what seemed to be the front.. (as it was all screwed up alignment wise)

kept slipping it back on and hey presto sorted it (til all the flexing broke the pipe and then sounded like hell on earth !!!)... cue new centre and back box combo !
