Just bought a 2009 GT/CS about 3 months ago, and after about a month it starts clunking between shifts. Its very loud, loud enough to hear if your standing outside the car as I idle by. It will even do it if I work the gears sitting still, but only if the car is running. I googled the problem and read where a few others have had the same issue, but all of them ended up being a major headache trying to get the problem resolved. Ford doesn't seem to want to recognize the problem. Do any of you S197 guys/gals have this problem? Any ideas or resolutions are greatly appreciated. I would rather get some opinions before I let it sit at the dealership for 2 days, just for them to throw some BS at me about how its normal. Sorry if this has been asked 5k times.

was it clunking before you got the
gears installed?

It was. It started pretty much as soon as I got it and has progressively gotten louder.

Mine clunks when shifting from 1st into 2nd. Usually going around turns. Always done it as far as I can remember. Never done anything about it.

yeah there can be a little clunking, but
your situation doesn't sound right.

might just have to let the ford mechanics
figure out what it is, so it can get fixed
once and for all.
