Click / clunk when changing gears or breaking..

I went under the car, moved the driveshaft around and the u/joints are not the source of the play in the drivetrain..
I took my T/A perf rear end housing cover off.. no metal shavings, and a slight bit of play on the gears inside. (Possibly normal??)
All gears in the rear look good.. Nothing looked abnormal.
Can the source of a click/clunk when shifting 1-2 2-3, and breaking be from the tranny?
Tranny mount?
In neutral when I hit the breaks when moving fwd, it gives a initial click, and thats it... Shifting from 1-2 2-3 I can sometimes hear it, but not often and when I do hear it, its a loud click like a slap on my bear ass..
I never hear it in reverse...
Any ideas?
Exhaust is clearing everything just fine....
I looked at the tranny mount, could not tell if it was broken...

Is ANY level of play in the rear acceptable? Or should it be as tight as a teen?


I should add, 02 WS6 33k miles..

I had this problem ,Not sure if it will help:hmm: but..... My rear pass side exhaust hanger would Clink pretty bad when shifting. And as far as play... there shouldnt be to much get a dial indicator and check it but with that low of miles I doubt it.

sounds to me like your tranny mount bushing took a shit on ya...

sounds like what I have, dunno what it is, will try the tranny mount...

does your shifter move up and down when you get on it?

I know you may think this is dumn, but I had a similar incident with mine. turns out it had nothing to do with drivetrain itself. my rear passenger side caliper was extremely loose. Seriously thought I had a problem in the drivetrain too....

uhhh well that might depend on location, cause around here, Tight and teen don't fit in the same sentence, how bout "Hotdog in a Hallway".
