There is a knocking noise in the motor of my 1992 town and country. Could this be the transmission going?
NO. A knocking noise in the engine is a problem in the engine.
What could cause a knocking noise in the engine?
Knocking is caused by preignition, where the heat in the cylinder causes the gas to ignite before the spark plug does. The noise could also be piston slap, which is caused by a worn cylinder wall. Try using a higher octane/grade gas and see if the noise goes away. In certain engines like the Malibu 3.1 liter and others, the knocking is caused by a piston rocking in the cylinder. This is called piston slap. It is a damaging condition, but seems to be considered "normal" by GM.

depends on what kind of knocking you mean. lots of engines can have what we call "piston slap" when the engine is cold and goes away in a few minutes when the engine warms up. If the noise stays and is worse when revved up you have a more serious problem.Hope this helps
