hard 'clunk' from park into reverse when hot....855R 850

posted by  someone claiming to be jordanvw@aol.com on  Sat Jun 23 04:44 CST 2007 [RELATED]

my '97 855R has about 150k mi.. when the car is cold, the auto trans shifts pretty smoothly.. but when the car is hot, the shifts are more hard, and when i shift out of park into reverse there is a noticible "clunk" when its hot.. any ideas?

im going to change the ATF (flush and fill) and see if that helps.. any reccomendations to an ATF additive, should i run synthetic ATF or is regular dextron ok? how do i change the ATF, just open that big drain plug under the tranny and drain it out and refill with new fluid? any idea would be helpful..
thanks
chris
