Knocking sound at startup and low speeds

[accorddude44]

So I've noticed a slight knocking/clunking sound that I always hear when I start up my Accord (F23A5). I also hear it when I start to move in 1st/2nd gear, but not when I'm above 10km/h-ish.

Any ideas what it might be, before I take it to a mechanic?

Not an urgent issue, it's just embarrassing to be seen in a car which makes loud noises, getting people's attention for all the wrong reasons...

Have you checked your engine oil level?

Yeah, I check it every time I drive, as it seems to burn oil sometimes (oil level fluctuates between high and low).
