My 2005 accord...it's been like this for a while now... everytime i shift to a gear...lets say to park then to drive...or to reverse...etc...i heard a "click" sound after i shift....is that normal...

 

probably need some more greese/ lubrication oil in the shifter.

Thats the only thing i can think of.

Is the noise coming from the shifter or under the dash?

dont know if its normal or not.

 

can you elaborate when it clicks?

if you are in Park... the shifter will click when you press the brake to shift out.

if you are in Park on a hill, and you shift out... it will click(more of a clank)

 

if the clicking is heard outside i have a 92 and it has a hill holder feature so u will hear an audible click as u brake and shift into the gear u select. u will hear it on inclines also. doesnt have to be much of one. i dont know if manual trannies have this feature but automatic cars do. u can feel it when u have your lt foot on the dead pedal on the dr side floor. if u hear it and feel it in the front end that would be what it is. u may hear a click also inside when u put your foot on the brake to energize the shiftlock solenoid in the gear shift area to get the car out of park. my solenoid is located to the right of the shifter in the console. u will hear all kinds of clicks and beeps in these cars.

 

so lets say i was in park

i press my brakes to shift to reverse...

now that i am in reverse, i let go of the breaks so i can go reverse, and just right after i let go of my brakes...there's that "click" sound...its more of like some clutch sound....i think its from the outside..but not sure where...

and when i'm done reversing...i shift to drive, and right before i let go of my breaks to drive foward...thre's the sound again...

 

yea.... thats not what i thought it was. I'll try to pay attention when i drive my car tomorrow if it does it too.

 

yes. that is what mine does. park your car say in a parking space. u stand behind it back far enough to be out of the way but where u can see and hear the front wheels.. have someone back it out and move forward in the direction that u r standing in, like say to the right, u would listen to the pass front. u will then hear the clicks im talking about. they r quite audible. when u r coming to a stop u will notice them. u will feel them its like 2 clicks mostly when u stop at an incline or decline. can be a slight one. a tin sounding type of click.

 

I hear more of a "clunk" when I shift from park to reverse or from reverse to drive. I think it's just the gears engaging and as far as I know, its normal.

 

it might be a shifter locking devise going ON.
when u push the brakes, that devise pulls in the lever that locks the shifter, and when u let go the brakes it pushes the lever back out. i'm pretty sure thats what it might be.

we just bought an 03 accord, i'll see if it has that problem

 

Yeah, it sounds like a "cluck" too...but my friends have other hondas and they do not seem to have that problem...


Hrmm...let me know...
