trans noise in reverse

Truck is a 2000 F-250 with 5.4 and automatic. When placed in reverse but sitting still the trans makes a growling noise that it does not make in any other gear or park. Not loud by any stretch, you cant hear it if the radio is on loud enough to hear while driving but noticable none the less. Truck just turned 110K miles, fluid smells and looks great and trans works great. Is the noise anything to worry about?

Check to make sure that the inspection plate on the front of the tranny that covers the torque converter is good and tight. I have heard of people turning them around 180 degrees to quiet them.

Check motor and tranny mounts too. Could be something simple.

Or not.
