Transmission issues

I've been having transmission "issues" with my 2006 lx sedan, automatic transmission for a while, and can't get to the bottom of whats wrong...

Here are ALL the things that happen, hopefully someone can figure it out, I've searched everywhere and get nowhere...

Whenever I am parked and I shift into drive I hear a clunk/click...this happens EVERY TIME, but any hill increases the roughness of the clunk/click...the steeper the hill the worse the clunk/click.

If I speed up slowly, then let off the gas suddenly there is a lot of engine braking and I hear an odd noise, I can't quite describe it but it's a soft noise, almost like when you drive through snow very slowly.
If I press the gas the car clunks/clicks just like when I shift from park to drive.Even if I BARELY touch the gas this happens, but the quicker I press it the worse it is.
However this doesn't always happen, and if I accelerate QUICKLY then let off it never does it.

If I slow down and almost stop, then press the gas I get the same clunk/click and the car jerks forward a little.Even if I BARELY touch the gas this happens, but the quicker I press it the worse it is.

Any ideas? It's quite frustrating...i can feel the clunk/click and it's one of those noise that just sounds so bad that you tense up.

EDIT:I'll try to post a video tomorrow of the sound.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Re: Transmission issues

Dang dude, how many different issues do you have?

Any other engine work done? Could it have motor mounts not bolted down tight?

Whenever I am parked and I shift into drive I hear a clunk/click...this happens EVERY TIME, but any hill increases the roughness of the clunk/click...the steeper the hill the worse the clunk/click.

This is normal, to a certain extent. Have you driven a similar car in similar conditions to compare?

I'll wait for the vid.

A lot, I like to take care of things before they become big things.
Funny thing is I'm about to post in an old thread with some new info, as for the video...my camera needs to charge, so it wont be up until later today, or more likely tomorrow.
