when i change gear from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd i can feel and hear a clunk beneath my foot. it doesnt happen every single time i change gear and only between those 2 gears. when i park my car i feel a clunk when im turning my steering wheel but only when im parking and turning the wheel quickly. when i drive along, there is a noise inside the car, its like a deafening noise like loud engine maybe?

With the power take up the engine does move a bit due to the torque reaction, the noise may be a faulty engine / transmission mount check for worn steering components and exhaust leaks for the loud noise.
