I'm wondering if this is normal.

Shortly after startup, say 2 or 3 seconds there is sometimes (not always) one dull clunk sound that comes from the car. The car is out of gear when this happens, and I am thinking it has something to do with the transmission which is a 5speed.

Anybody else experience this?

What could it be?:shrug:

You mean rear window heater/defrost or defrost setting on vent switch? (sorry, haven't looked at one recently) lots of cars turn on the a/c when defrost is selected to dry out the air. possibly the a/c compressor going on?
