Thanks for welcoming me here. Will try to capture or video the knocking sound that my engine creates.

is it all the time or just some times? Give some description of where it is and when it happens. Car year, transmission.

Random knocking sounds is not a common problem people have. Just a random guess. If it shakes at idle and the knock is when driving hard and around shifting it is your motor mounts.

It a 2005 rx8 with a manual shifter. I can hear the knock while idle but it intensify every time I shift and release the clutch.
