Anyone have information or history on acceleration noise for the MDX? Specifically the 2007? Lately I've been hearing (and feeling) a muffled "pop" or thunk sound upon a hard acceleration from a slow speed. Usually in passing. It's not easily repeatable but seems to be increasing. I've got about 1100 miles on it.

It wouldn't be the gas in the tank sloshing backwards, would it?

I wouldn't think the gas sloshing around would be very noticeable...aren't there baffles in the tank to keep that from happening?
A more likely (IMO) explanation might be the car shifting when accelerating. Firmer shifts are more noticeable than softer ones.
Also, there might be a loose connection somewhere under the car...a U-joint that is not properly secured...and whatever is being held by the U-joint bounces around under the stress of acceleration.
My $.02 worth.

The answer will probably be -- "cannot duplicate the customer's problem.."
