knocking = BAD ..... check out the boots on your back axle.. if the're broken ... bad news .. it also could be your tierod or Tierod ends ends on your front wheels, agian check the boot and if it's broken . with suspention stuff like that.. when it starts making big noises it's already to late and they will need to be replaced..... if it is your suspention... it could be any # of things ... Is it one big knock or is it series of little knocks ... and does your car vibrate or jolt when it clicks ?

hmmmm, mine does this too. but only when I'm parked on a hill and have used the hand brake to hold the car. when I start moving backward it goes thump and shakes the car a little bit. if I'm parked level it never happens.
