5at tranny smooth?
i have a noticeable noise when the tranny engages from drive to reverse or vice versa. do you guys have this? i went to the dealer and checked out some other g's and they all seemed smooth as silk, with no noticeable engagement noise or body shift.

My 5AT is so smooth that you can barely feel it shift. When I take it to redline and am really pushing it you can feel it but the rest of the time you can't tell when it shifts. The noise you're getting between drive and reverse may be caused by the idle being too high. What is your idle? Mine runs about 600 - 700 rpm. My car is a 2004 with about 20K miles on it.

I wouldn't say its way high but it could be high enough to cause your problem. I had a van that would clunk when it went into gear but the idle was around 100 rpm. It's something to check.
