Is it normal to hear a slight clunk when going from N to D... Is it normal to hear a slight clunk when going from N to D when the drivetrain becomes "loaded"? Of course I must have shifted it into and out of neutral ten times to recreate the sound, each time convincing myself more and more that it is not normal. Just wondering if anyone knows for a fact that there is a "small" amount of play in the drivetrain when it is loaded? Does it make any sound at all normally?
Thanks.
Thanks.
Yes it happens because there is nessesary slack in the drive train, and when you go into gear its taken up.

mine doesn't do that hardly at all, come to think about it no car i have ever owned has done that enough to warrant suspicion. once while getting clunks i replaced u joints and it went away in one previous car.
