I have a slight knocking vibration when pulling away, at first i thought it was the clutch but i think it may be the exhaust knocking on something, are there any known issues that this could be?

If you're looking to buy the subframe bolts and spacers, the dealers are cheaper than Awesome (as with other things
)
