Banging noise.. =( HELP!

so a few days ago my boyfriend was driving my car and when we were stopped at a red light, he let up from the brake a little and there was this banging noise and he said something was wrong but i let it go.. then today, i drove it and accelerated off and the car wasn't as loud as usual (it's stock)? and so i tried braking again at a light and letting up off the brake slowly and it was hardcore banging, haha.. i'm really pissed. now that my attention is drawn to it.. also when i drive on a straight rode, i hear it bang to. it's bad. not loud but boy it's annoying. really.. help.. idk if the engine is either flooded, my ecu needs to be reset or a transmission problem but if this has ever happened to you, please let me know! thanks!

If the engine was flooded, you wouldn't be able to start it, doubt its an ecu problem, maybe tranny.

More info is needed to make a decent diagnosis. Where does it seem to come from? Does it just do it during braking? Which model AT or MT?
