Hi,
I have a 2003 Subaru Outback with Manual transmission and for the past couple of months there has been a light to moderate thumping under the console when I would begin to drive. For example. when I would accelerate from a stop sign or stop light or even a turn the car would hesitate and thump. Today when I began driving the problem got unbearably worse and now the thumping is very laud and the car is really shaking.
