I just acquired a '91 Sedan Deville with 143k miles and I have noticed some transmission noises. Predominantly when I accelerate quickly, on the attack the car hesitates for a fraction of a second and then it knocks. Not a loud knock, but you can feel and hear it grab. A friend told me that that is normal for FWD V8s and it was no big deal, but I want other opinions. Please advise.

You asked if the problem in my post about "slow to go into drive" was the same problem. It doesn't sound like it. Mine makes no noises and works great after shifting into gear. It just takes a while to engage for some reason. No one on this forum or another one I am on has posted any ideas. Your problem doesn't sound "normal" to me.
