08 avenger help please
Thanks in advance guys....
When i shift from park to reverse the front end seats itself like normal but then the is an extra clunk. It just started a week ago. Its only happens sometimes and its only from park to reverse and neutral to reverse. Stick shift moves fine and all my shifts are smooth with no problems. Ive read that it could possibly be the shift solenoid but my shifts are smooth with no issues. Any thoughts guys? Your help is appreated.

actually I was asking because I like to look things up and research everything before I change anything. I got reading about the sensors and solenoids and just wanted to make sure I knew what everything looked like and where to find the parts I MAY need. I do intend to start with the mounts.
I build classic cars and have learned the hard way that not enough info or not knowing where to buy certain parts can be a bitch so I ask questions and look things up for all the possibilities I may run into. also figured the info will most likely come in handy later as trans work is not my cup of tea. especially newer cars.

If you take good care of the trans, it will take good care of you. Follow the severe maintenance schedule (15-20k IIRC), add a trans cooler, use only ATF+4.
I've had many A604 variants take me well over 200k without fault, I maintain them religiously.
A read thru here may be useful http://www.allpar.com/fix/trans.html
Keep up on the trans and you shouldn't have to worry about fixing it.
Wasn't trying to be an ***, just seemed like you were asking for advice, but planning on doing your own thing regardless.
IIRC the Solenoid pack interchanges between a lot of vehicles and years. Anything with an A604 variant.

You are welcome. Worn mounts will definitely cause your issue.
I would suggest seeing if you can get Poly mounts and replace all of them at once. They're a little more pricey, but they last longer and offer a better more direct feel.
Doing all of them at once is important regardless as installing one new will almost always cause the remaining mounts to fail from the change in geometry with the new mount.
