    Sonata 2006, 3.3 auto, made in Korea and purchased in the UK.
    When changing up into 3rd gear (auto box) for the first time, there is a
    mild clunking noise. Sounds a bit like two metallic plates banging together.
    From then on, the gears are quiet and smooth, even when changing into 3rd
    again. So it only does it once.
    Any ideas what is causing this noise?
    cheers,
    nick

    Trolls and nonsense speakers can't claw their way out once they've been
    exposed to the light of day. Squirm and enjoy it.
