This noise started about 5 weeks ago and I finally brought it into the dealership today. The dealer checked it out and claims that it is normal transmission backlash. What are your thoughts/opinions? Has anyone else experienced the same thing?

was dealer able to replicate the sound? or based the diagnosis on a guess? the clunking... is it favored to one side???

i had clunking on my XF... brought it to the dealer and of all things it was a loose suspension!!! they torqued the rear suspension up and it was gone!
