when the car is in drive and in motion, a thumping noise occurs. it sounds as if someone is knocking on the floorboard. when i looked under the car, i noticed a small gap between the engine and the transmission that was about the thickness of an index card. also there was some type of oil around it and on other parts of the undercarriage. has this happened to anyone else?

shot
had one of these cars and was issued by work.
has a 24 hour a day job and in storms and floods you name it.
it may had about 250,000 when this happened. Due to the age and mileage they scrapped the car and gave me a new one.
sorry to be Mr. Bummer

It sounds like the case has cracked and it's leaking fluid. It will most likelyneed to be replaced or at the very least rebuilt.

You took a chance by driving a piece of sh*t car and got screwed. Next time try buying foreign ;)
