The type of noise you hear when you engage an automatic transmission may vary depending on the make and model of your vehicle. However, in general, there are several common sounds:
*Soft clicking sound: This is a common sound when shifting the gear selector to any speed position.
* Short pop: This sound may accompany the vehicle entering Park (P) or Reverse (R).
* Humming or whirring noise: This sound may occur when shifting into a higher gear, indicating that the gears are engaging.
* Shaking or grinding noise: This is usually a sign of a transmission problem and requires immediate attention.
* No sound: Sometimes there is no sound at all when shifting gears, especially on modern cars with smooth gear changes.
