Off-road premium with 4k miles. Smooth. I always let it idle about 1-2 minutes before I back out of my garage. Built in January but wasn’t delivered until mid-May. Guessing it was getting several QC holds while also waiting for the sway bar disconnect.
I don't ever idle when not needed and watch the engine oil and transmissions temperature before hard acceleration.

From long ago semi driving and occasional heavy equipment operating I do follow the owner's manual instructions for idle down in a fast transition from working hard to shut down.

Does anybody notice a little clatter sound sometimes when in lower RPMS and usually somewhere between 2nd and 4th gear upon medium to hard acceleration? It shifts perfect and is smooth, but almost sounds like a knock or something. I thinking its just heavier load at a lower rpm like most cars get annoyed with.

Your probably hearing the noise from the direct injectors which tend to be noisy.

Mine is not a TSB affected model, but it shifts kind of wonky. Hard into 2-3 or 3-2. Hardish at downshifts 3-2-1. Worse cold. 4k miles. Something seems a bit off about it. I'm doing a drain and fill next week in hopes a little purge helps.
