Question engine thump and suspension pop
My SVX after it warms up sometimes has a thumping sound when in idle. I never thought much about it until one day my Dad asked me if my engine was ok and if I had enough oil in it. It’s almost like a thumping sound – hard to describe. Is this just a normal flat engine sound? Funny, had the car for 8 years and just now really noticed the noise.

2nd question, when I leave in the mornings I back in the turnaround in my driveway, then when I start to pull out there is a sharp pop sound coming from the bottom of the car. Do I just need to lube the suspension? CV joints are fine and no play with the tie rods.

Thanks for the help!
