Tranny thump

My '02 (w/ 4.6 V8) tranny thumps when you accelerate in first, than let off. It doesn't do it in any other gear. Anyone else experience the same thing?

This maybe a stupid question, but is it an Auto or Standard tranny ? If it's the Auto, there's an update to the computer for the tranny. I had my local dealer update my '02 V8 and the couple quirky things my tranny was doing magically disappeared. I was very happy and surprised.

My Explorer is an automatic. I guess I will have to get back to the dealer and find out more info. I hope it's that simple.
