Default Rx450h hybrid Clunk noises

Hello all. I recently purchased a used 2021 Rx450h with 75,000 km and am unsure about some of the sounds this car makes.
I can hear the what i think is the brake actuator make a clunk sound when shifting from P to D, D to R , D to P most times. You can feel the quick vibration in the pedal and the clunk seems to come from the firewall area.
I do not have the dreaded squawk or the clunk when pressing the brake on its own, although sometimes the clunk occurs after having had the brake pressed for a long while.
Can any other Rx450 owners please let me know if this seems ok. I have never owned a car this quiet so not trying to nitpick. Just worried as I don't trust this car fully yet.
