Hey guys its me again with ANOTHER possible issue...

So today i finally got my new tires and rims on (not related to the issue) well i was backing into my garage and rolled my window down in order to check the clearance since i knew it would be close with the larger tires and i noticed something ive never noticed before when putting vehicle in and out of gear. I noticed that when i switched from park to reverse and reverse to park there was a pretty loud "click" i have never noticed it before (most likely due to it being winter and not really driving with my windows down a ton). I did notice it putting it into drive also. I couldnt hear it in the cab with windows up but with windows down it was clear as day.

Does anyone elses do this? Or is it just mine? is this normal or should i take it in? I am not throwing any codes.

8 speed?

Mine does the same thing on my 8 speed since day 1. Mine just sounds like it is locking it into park. I don't think it is an issue but we will see what other people say.

Its the 8speed. Guess i should have posted that. yeah i wasnt sure if it was normal or not. It didnt sound like a clunk but a click you know? Clunking or grinding would make me more nervous

I have a 2016 Sport with the 8 speed and I hear no noise at all When putting it in any gear.

I hear an audible "click" with the windows down (from D or R to P) but nothing more than other autos I've had from other makes. Mine's done it for all 35 months since new and has never changed. I'm not currently worried about it.

My 99 Dakota was really bad about The Clunk. Come to think of it my 88 did it also.

The "New" ( now 6 years old!) truck doesn't do it.

It's a Dodge.
