1992 Toyota Corolla

Hi,

I am wondering why my car makes knocking sounds. It seems to be coming from the front of the car. The sound only last about 10 minutes of me driving it. It usually makes this sound after it has been sitting awhile , like overnight.

Is it going to break down or something?

thanks

Haddi

Pinpoint the exact location of this noise and describe the noise you're hearing such as squealing/ticking/thudding/thumping etc-then comeback

The best way I can describe it is that it like someone is knocking on something metal. Almost like a "clink"

Its sounds like its coming from the front of the car--between the front two wheels because when I drive I can feel it under me.

As I keep driving, it stops (after about 15 mins)
