i hear the same kinda thing . However, mine happens when I'm going to back into a spot and I'm still moving forward at like 1 mph and shift into reverse. I was wondering what it was also.

do you all notice that when you first start driving your car when it is cold out that it does not want to down shift. It will go higher up in the rpm when your not pushing the pedal very far??

I have a 1-2 clunk when hard shifting but other than that tranny shifts hard and fast chirping into 3rd with 285's. Once the trans is warm the car shifts like a dream. I only drive in manual mode, VSC off and Sport mode and have not had any stange sounds besides a tick tick sometimes when the car is first started and backing out of the spot in the am.

I really only noticed at first in low acceleration I would hear a clunk. So I took it to the dealer and they thought it was the rear brake pads and replaced them still had the noise. After a few weeks they had a master tech look at it and found that the rear drive shaft was broke and repaired under warranty.
