Thread: How much of a "clunk" do you get shifting from park?

when ever you are on a hill, you should stop, set e brake, put car in neutral, let it settle, then put into park. when you leave take car out of park, release the e brake and go. cars shiftier will never be jammed in park again.

order engine and trans mount from rockauto, like 33$ shipped for both. Order urathane from mcmaster.com make diy mounts. Will cost about $70 to have diy high performance mounts. Id show pics of mine, but this computer doesnt have a SD card slot.

if you're stock and like a smooth vibration-free vehicle, don't do solid mounts regardless what they're composed of.

as far as the clunk, i have all brand new mounts and i dont have so much of a clunk, but more of a slight click when i shift out of park. i assume it's normal. every GP ive been in does it. so who knows.

Even solid metal mounts aren't as bad as people make them out to be. I put them in my Stealth in 07 and daily drove it with them til I parked in at the end of February putting about 45k miles on them.

I know...I know... but I think i'm overly sensitive with my car. i had solid rubber lowers for a while (AWESOME gear shifts may i add) but at about 50-65mph they would cause an out-of-balance feel. and i spent all kinds of money trying to fix it when all along it was just mounts. so i always like to give people my perspective before they take everyone's advice because maybeee they're picky about their cars like i am.

If "performance shift" pisses me off, I guarantee the diy mounts wont. The header hitting things is 100x worse than the p shift

Mine only clunks when I'm engaging reverse. What would that be? Motor mount to or just hitting something

Most if not all cars clunk on a hill
