This information was created to inform the technician that the 2\-3 upshift and the 3\-2 downshift clunk is caused by the releasing of the 2\-4 band and application of the 3\-4 clutch assembly during an upshift. Also during a 3\-2 downshift, the releasing of the 3\-4 clutch during the application of the 2\-4 band, can cause torque reversal down the output shaft creating a clunk. This is a normal condition.
