    I'm not sure if this is something I should be worried about but I have had a few instances of this rapid clicking noise when shifting into drive from Reverse. when it happens, a light on the instrument panel lights up for a very short time that looks like the traction control or something then goes away.

    Is this normal?

    Are you coming to a complete stop before going into the opposite direction ?
    Sounds like a solenoid issue and is " NOT " normal .
    Have you scanned for codes ?

    Sounds like you are coming to a complete stop before switching gears.
