On pull away iam getting a slight knocking noise from the rear axle area, and ideas what it might be.

I had something similar two weeks ago. Search this site for "Flex Disc" and see if this helps you.

We had the same. Imagine my suprise when we looked in the trunk and found the gas station attendant. I wondered where he had gone.![:0]

Also check the center axle mounting in the trunk while the lid is open and the attendant is out of the way  8)
