Strange idling noise on 2012

My 2012 Idles great in "Neutral" but I get this strange "Thuck-thuck-thuck" noise when it's in drive.

Anyone else notice this?

My idling has always been awful. The car shakes sometimes from the motor, and it's really bad in the heat. When the a/c is running, the car shakes even more.

You might want to record a video for specific clarification.

My 11 has a bit of noise when idling, but it's normal. Having the A/C or the heat on add a bit more. Also some times I have uneven Idle when first starting up for 2-3 mins. Mines also a stick...

LOL my 08 has this rattling noise at idle, but only after I dropped a roll of tape and a big fuse down into the front bumper splash guard lol - I think its stuck in there and rattling :p I will take it out, once the 5-Axis goes on in the Spring/Summer
