Clunking

[corey1983]

I Have A 2003 Mercury Mountaineer Premier V8 And When I Put It Into Reverse When I First Start It The Thing Clunks Into Gear. I Was Wondering If This Is Common Or If Anybody Else Has This Issue. My Truck Is Still Under Warranty But They Claim That Nothing Is Wrong. Please Help

No I mean from park to reverse. It only does it the first shift from park to reverse when the vehicle is first started. If you dirve it put it in park and then go to reverse it doenst do it

Or Tranny filter?!?! I don't know that much, but I've hear of a case where the filter plugged made a difference.
