7AT: Heavy Resistance going From P to R
I've been experiencing this ever since I bought the car. It doesn't happen all the time. I would guess 1 out of 10 times when going from Park to Reverse, the shifter feels like it's stuck, and with some force it makes a loud clunk when going out of P. This issue happens only when going from P to R. It happens in all conditions, cold starts, hot starts. I tried to capture it on video. Will post it soon.
Anybody else experienced this?

Are you on a hill? Does it happen from D to R? If your on a slight incline I can see your Tranny locking up when trying to get it out of park. Use the emergency brake when parking so you dont put that strain on your tranny.

It only happens when going from P to R. It doesnt matter if Im on leveled ground or on an incline.
Here is a video I captured the other day. It's the sound on the very first shift only. I noticed on the video, my e-brake is up. Could this be the cause?

Since I don't have an AT, I'm guessing, but don't you have to have the brake depressed before you can shift into gear? Maybe the lock is not releasing completely?

I always use e-brake but have never had that happen.

i have noticed this same thing. Parked flat in the garage, Brake Depressed, Hand brake on or off, sorta 'pops' into Reverse with a noise... only sometimes - not every time.

same issue... I've found it comes from the drivetrain storing residual energy from driving. When you come to your destination, put the car in neutral, let off brakes, (notice car roll forward), reapply brake, e-brake up, PARK. No clunk on leaving.
