Hey my celica makes a little knocking sound when you push down on the accelerator. You can hear it and feel it when your driving. Its not bad where the car shakes or anything like that but you can notice it when your driving it a lot. Its worse in the mornings before it warms up all the way or when your going up a hill. Any suggestions on where to start checking?

Hi there,

This may be ignition ping, but I would like to see you get an oil pressure test to make sure that it is not a bearing knock noise, this can destroy the engine if left unchecked.
