I have a 2002 F-150 Supercrew, and have started noting a clunking sound when I come to a stop...almost like it is downshifting real hard. I ahve a prox 43K miles on it.

It seems to me shifting ok as far as I can tell, but the clunking sound at times is really heavy.

Also, I have tried putting it in neutral and then coming to a stop and there is no sound or clunking when I do that.

Has anyone experienced anything similar. Could it be ujoints perhaps?

Any help is appreciated,

Ron

 

Mine does it when I slow to about 15mph then accelerate. I am told that this is normal.

I've got the exact same problem with my 02 supercrew too. seems to occur mostly between 25 - 40 mph when decelerating. I've never taken it back to the dealer so I don't know if it's normal or not but when it happens it definitely get's your attention

 

I notice mine is especially doing it just as I am coming to a stop, or as stopping...and sometimes being stopped...letting off the brake it does it too.
