are you 100% sure it is coming from the transmission? How does it shift?

I am also trying to figure this out. It sounds like there is a loose bolt in the transmission and it is bouncing everywhere. SO ANNOYING. Have you guys figured it out?

Mine does this to. I can really hear it when I am in a drive through close to the wall or say in a DIY car wash. I wish I knew what it was. I am taking it to a mechanic wednesday and he is going to go through everything, even the tranny, ill let yall know if he finds anything loose.


Edit: my motor is a 4.0 though idk if the trannys were different.
