    Thump at rear when accelerate!

    I've been encountering a clunk or thump at the rear sometimes when I accelerate from a low speed (around 30 mph at 3rd gear). Car is a tip. Mechanic said the engine/tranny mounts are tight. The subframe is ok. The sway bar and U/CV joints are all ok. The "thump" doesn't happen all the time. Mechanic was unable to find the problem. Any idea? Please help!

    it happens on my touareg as well, it happens when you're driving lets say in 3rd gear and you sudden accelerate a bit and you hear that thump right? i'm not sure what is the EXACT cause of it, but i just think it's just an unsmooth shift in gears

    nope because it's been doing that for the past 20,000km and nothing has broken yet, plus the car is still on warranty, so no sweat!

    But do you find it annoying when you want to pass someone on a highway.
