I have a 13 Altima and have been hearing a clunk/pop sound when coming to a stop and sometimes when changing from park to drive and park to reverse. It seems to also be there when accelerating too and the car is also seem to be vibrating when moving at lower speeds. Today i noticed something else. I parked the car and took the key out. I went to the side of the car and slowly rocked it back and forth and started to hear this clunk sound. I have uploaded it to youtube and can be found here http://youtu.be/s7CS6yYe7mU . After hearing the sound, i decided to take the driver wheel off and noticed it makes the same sound when i move the tires. It seems to be coming from the CV joint, where it connects to the transmission. why would a car make that clunk sound with the car/key off and swayed back and fourth? does this seem like a CV joint issue, something related to the transmission or something related to the suspension. Thanks and i appreciate the help

I apologize I can’t get video to work. If it makes a noise when you turn the wheel it us normal just the gears clicking together. The way you explain it makes it sound like an engine mount or isolator
Thank you for the quick response. It ends up being you were correct. I took it to the mechanic and he noticed the engine torque mount was not completely tightened. Once it was tightened, the clunk went away. Thanks again for giving me some direction on where to look.
