Best Answer

Your motor could be undergoing detonation. This is a result of a complex burning problem inside one or more cylinders. Number one cause of this is low octane rating. Too much load on your engine or shifting into high gears also cause it.

What is the cause of a knocking from the front end of a 2000 Pontiac grand prix when driving at low speeds?

My 2000 Grand Prix would have a low-speed knocking noise coming from the drivers side as the CV axle was failing. The loss of lubrication in the CV Boots allows the joint to make a knocking/tapping sound at a low speed. If the knocking is coming from the engine compartment, then it could be an entirely different problem.
