When I'm in a hurry, and don't have time to warm up my engine, and shift from P to D, I get a loud clanking sound and the car just budge forward aggressively. It doesn't happen though when the engine is warm, but I mean really warmed up. It's becoming annoying because I know it's not normal...Anybody else have this problem? What's causing it? And how do I fix it?

Mine does this as well however I don't really care about the problem as I am doing a swap soon but I changed the mounts and it almost went away.

I'm also gonna be doing that soon... Damn, where is this thing coming from...

cmh

mine does it too and its super annoying... i noticed also that it may be cuz wen it cold starts it revs high so basically its like pressing the gas and throwing it into drive at the same time. once its warmer the idle lowers more therefore not putting so much strain on the tranny when u put it in drive... thats my theory

note:my car revs higher then normal i have to fix that... but it think everyones car revs high at cold start. mie revs high all the time

Even though, it doesn't happen to new cars, so that means it's not normal and it can be fixed... Okay, let's keep this going maybe somebody can figure this out...

Yes it is for sure a cold start issue with the iac not allowing the revs to return to a proper idle.

When i shift from p to d i don't get a loud clank from what i remember.. but it does jerk forward kinda hard.

When I fixed my leaky head cover gasket, the jerk kinda gotten harder. Maybe because the compression in my engine is now much more stronger. But still anybody else have tried to fix this?

sometimes when I look carefully my tranny has the same kind of bulge that i have o_0

Oh, also, I've researched a bit about this, could it be the solenoids are going out on the tranny? I mean, since it's the one controlling the shifting could it cause this kind of problem?

My SC did this when I first got it, then I changed the tranny filter and fluid and everything was solved.

Really, interesting, I'm actually gonna be doing that tomorrow... We'll see then...

Do yourself a favor and have the entire system flushed and replaced with fresh fluid by a profesional. When I first did the tranny filter I just drained the tranny pan and then topped off the fluid (which only replaces 2 quarts of the 10 or so quart capacity) so after about 2 months the symptoms slowly started coming back, so i changed the filter again and had it flushed at my buddies shop. Now it's been over 5 months with no problems.

And my car wasn't terribly neglected by the previous owner either, the tranny filter/ fluid was done at like 125k(have service records) and I did the filter at like 178k

Thanks for the tip, although I know how to flush the tranny fluid.. I researched that also because I know there is 10quarts or so total, but in the pan it's only about 2quarts that you can flush, it turns out(based on my research) there is a different plug so you can flush the one in the transmission itself, and this plug/hose is the one that leads directly to the radiator transmission cooler..
