clunking from 1st to 2nd gear
I have 35k and no warranty on my 04 TL. About 3 weeks ago, a clunking sound started when going from 1st to 2nd gear , but it would only happen when I would start out my day from a cold start.
The clunk isn't extremely loud, but I can feel it on my foot when I accelerate on the pedal.
I tried a search on this, but no one seems to have the same exact thing as I am describing. I don't know much about stuff under the hood, but I have a hunch there is something goin on with the tranny. I have ran into some finance troubles so am trying to troubleshoot this one on my own if anyone has any ideas.
Thanks.

I experienced this same problem on my 05 TL Auto w/nav. This past wednesday the transmission died while driving. Had to have the car towed to the dealer. The entire transmission needed to be replaced.

I have an appointment with the stealership on Monday. I had someone hold the brake and hit the gas while it was in drive, and the front of the engine raised up quite a bit. However, I don't have any other symptoms of a bad motor mount ie. Vibration at idle, vibration at high speeds, rattling, or oil leaking from any of the mounts. So I will just have to see I guess.
I'm really hoping It's not the same issue that Moonhaze had.
I'll post back when I find out in case any one else runs into the same symptoms as me.
