My first guess is the fuel filter is plugged, not allowing the engine enough fuel. I think the knock you hear would be drivetrain parts banging as it goes from sudden power-on to power-off. IT'S DEFINITELY NOT THE FUEL FILTER!!!!!! FIRST IS THERE A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT?? SECOND DID YOU TUNE IT UP WITH AFTERMARKET PARTS??? DON'T USE CHEAP AFTERMARKET PARTS TO DO TUNE UP. DOES IT SPUTTER ON TAKE OFF UNDER POWER?? I WOULD ASK THE DEALER ABOUT THE OBD EMMISSION WARRANTY EXTENSION. YOU WILL GET A FREE TUNE UP AND OIL CHANGE IF YOUR CAR IS EFFECTED. SOUNDS LIKE AN IGNITION PROBLEM PROBABLY SIMPLE TO FIX.
