To the OP: that “clunking” sound/feeling might be a worn out transmission mount allowing the tranny to bang around.
As for shifting habits, I’m one of those who starts in 2nd 90% of the time. I have 4.10’s and 1st just seems way too low, I’m shifting before I’m through the crosswalk. Isn’t 1st ratio in a C6 transmission 2.46:1? Second gear in my ZF5 is 2.37:1. It just feels like a more natural starting gear to me.
