You should try flushing the tranny fluid and replacing it with new fluid. I'm having the same problem and I just ordered some new mounts and we're gonna flush the tranny.

I went out the car the other day and started it up with the door open listened to see if I could tell where the clunking is coming from. Well when I put the car in gaer I heard a loud clunk come from the rear of the car, I put in reverse and heard the same so I think that it is sfae to assume that my rear is gone. So after I replace this I going to sell the car and get either a GS300 or a GS 400. Because I have three boys one who lives in Germany and when he comes to visit for the summer I can only use my 03 yukon to move my family around so I think that it's time for me to move up, get a GS and Mod the hell out of it. I'm goin to leave all of my Stereo in the car and try to get at least $4,500 for it
