Is this normal

I don't know if you guys have observed this on your RL's, whenever I shift from Reverse to drive or vise versa, I hear a clank sound which to me is a little on the loud side. It's not very audible when you are sitting inside the car with the windows closed, but try and have someone shift the car and stand outside and you'll hear it. I mean, is that how it's suppose to be?

Well, what I mean when I say loud is that it's very audible and kinda louder than I'm used to.

I noticed it also, where I work we have indoor parking and it was very quiet...and when I was shifting from Park to Reverse was pretty damn loud and notchy...Gonna check the transmission oil level for giggles, but I guess its "normal".....

Notchy is probably one of them cons that was noted on our RL, and do you notice also the chatter when going from reverse to drive specially during cold starts? It's like a jerking kind of action and I'm always worried that it will mess up the transmission soon.
