Clunk shifting from P to R 850 1995

Hi,
My wife`s 850 wagon(180K) has an intermittent clunk when shifting from Park into reverse. It does not do this when shifting into any other gear. Could this be a worn tranny mount or ?.
Thanks for advice.
Rich

Rich,
Most likely, (and hopefully) it just the u-joints have started to wear.
Any reputable shop should be able to check this out for you free of charge.

Clunk shifting from P to R 850 1995

In my car, occasionally when starting from starting the car and shifting to reverse right away, there is a clunk. I thought I read 1-2 months ago a post that suggested this could be caused by a defective/incorrectly placed rear spring bumper stop. I searched for 10 minutes here but I couldn't find it. Mine happens only occasionally so I haven't looked further (at the car or the posts). Good luck. '95 854T
