Hi, I have a van with only 84000 miles. It drives it just fine. When I come to a stop it vibrates like it wants to stall and the RPM goes to 500. Then when I take off after stopping it jumps and sputters. When I am parked and drop it in to R it hops backwards and wants to stall. When put in to P or N the van no longer does these things! I do here a cliking noise when I turn Left, its been doing it for some time. Van shifts fine, trany oil changed w/in 6 months and fluid levels good. Is it my tranny or my Torc converter or Cv joints?? Or what. Thank you.

well for the turning noise the cv joints is likely the problem, and the idle problem could be the torque converter or torque converter clutch solenoid, or the idle air control valve(hopefully) obviously the IAC would be the cheaper of the two
