    Hmmm, that's scary, cause mine clunks when I come to a stop too, but only when I am stopping abruptly from speed, like when I am going 50 down a hill and the light turns red at the bottom and I have to stop hard. Then I hear the tranny clunk, and then it clunks again when I let up off the brake. I just attributed this to the brakes locking up and my tranny shifting back into 1st after the harsh stop. I never thought it was a problem, always kinda assumed it was normal for the VX shifts to be a little clunky????

    btw.. overdrive is what failed in mine and what caused the "catastrophic transmission failure"

    i get that clunk after an abrupt stop as well, i assumed it was just the trans getting back into the right gear after stopping so suddenly
