Question 06tsx makes clunk noise when shifting from P to R. help??0

hi everyone!!
I bought a Acura 06tsx last month and I am over the moon. I am new to acura family and I would like to keep this car as long as one of us dies(touchwood) I like the car very much. But yest I noticed a little clunk sound when I shifted from P to R gear. it happened twice. at the time car was parked on a inclined surface. should I be worried about it? i hope there is nothing wrong with my tranny. i also drained and refill the tranny fluid(atfdw1)My car has 94000kms (59000miles)on it. any replies would be appreciated.
thanks

Clunk is usually a symptom of failed or failing motor mount (rear in reverse shows looseness).

Get a light and have a trusted helper, set e-brake and hold foot brake firmly w/ car in D and R, goose the accelerator to 1500-2000 rpm. You watch the motor mounts from the side looking for evidence of excessive movement or damage. A good light is essential.

good luck
