To me a clank would be similar to a bell ringing, bells make a clanking sound and so could any pulley. It could be any of the pulleys or the engine itself. Sounds are always described differently by each person, knock, clank, bang, click, tick. You probably won't get a ton of help on here just a bunch of guesses. You could try to make a video and post it on YouTube. Then put a link on this page.

I have a 1994 chevrolet cavalier z24. I have had 3 transmissions put into my car since January, 2015. I am still having the same problem 3 months later. The transmission is slipping when I put the car from park into drive. It goes into neutral. Can this be caused by the inside gear shifter if the shifter is not connected properly to the transmission? Please help me. It is costing a small fortune for my mechanic to figure out this problem!! Thank you so much. 9 Answers
