Your symptoms are classic for WATERHAMMER, which is a loud banging sound when a fixture valve closes. It’s usually associated with faucets, but don’t forget that the ballcock valve in your toilet tank is a valve just like any other.
You could try doing what RP suggests, or you could install a water hammer arrestor on the line to the tank.
