    Folks,

    Can anyone confirm/check if they get a sound from central console gear shift knob area when Switching from D to N or N to D or putting in Park?

    Absolutely silent when switching to Reverse.

    Haven't noticed this before until 3 days ago...

    Thanks.

    I was getting a little pop sound on mine, realized that is was actually the boot around the selector (fake leather?) I moved the folds around a bit, the pop is gone.

    Here is a clip showing the sound, turn up the volume. Maybe this is normal, would like to confirm if others get that. I typically have music on, so never paid attention before. Strange that this sound is not there when i put it in Reverse or change from D to S.

    That seemed to be really faint. Is it a lot noisier in reality than what plays in the recording?

    It is not loud, but with music off, it is audible and noticeable, that is how it caught my attention the first time a few days ago.
