I asked my handy-man husband, and what came to his mind first was a phenomenon called water hammer. Sometimes water usage (especially washers) can cause the pressure to change so rapidly that the offeding appliance causes a loud clunking noise. Research this and see if you think it's the problem. There's a part you can get called a water hammer arrester ($15-$20 at the hardware store)

It could be a buildup of sediment. Try draining the water heater. I've seen directions on doing it quite a few times but don't remember the details. Try repair.com - I have found them to be helpful with do-it-yourself stuff in the past. You could also ask them your question and they will actually get back to you!

Go ahead call a plumber sometimes they can
figure out what the problem is. Its worth a try I did
this once while installing a garbage disposal and
the plumber was very nice and I did it myself!!!
