I notice pulling the shifter out of P is harder when i'm on an incline. Is that normal? There also seems to be some very slight noise associated with being in P on a hill, as if the tranny wasn't fully disengaged. Can't tell if the noise is the engine or tranny or just my imagination though.

Is this slight noise something like a clunk?

 

Try this: next time you park on a hill use your parking/emergency brake to hold the car in place and THEN shift into park. When you come back to the car and start it shift it out of park FIRST and listen for the noise. Let us know what happens. I've heard some sick noises from autos on that have been parked on a hill with just the transmission holding them.
