loud clunk from underneath

Was out for a drive and while cruising, heard a loud clunk from underneath- thought I ran over a large rock although I didn't see any on the road.

Then the car started to feel a bit sluggish, and sounded a bit off too.

When I was stopped at a light, the engine stalled on its own (DCT). Mild vibration at idle.

No CEL.

Don't have a lift at home so could not check underbody.

Did I run over a rock that damaged something (exhaust system)?

Thanks.

Hard to tell without taking a look under the car. Many possibilities, including road debris putting a hole in your DCT oil pan (its plastic) and the transmission running out of fluid.

Yep, will take it to the dealer tomorrow morning. I do not see any oil/fluid. No CEL, and no fault codes on Carly. I suspect something with either transmission or drive shaft. I hope nothing too serious.

Thanks for your input.
