After the car has been driven for a while, then turned off and restarted later, there is a loud "clunking" noise when shifting into gear. Drives and sounds normal after shifting into gear. No error codes and shifting seems to be normal, just the clunk when putting in gear.

This clunck can be the engine mounts or worn-out CV axles, can you please shoot a quick video with your phone so I can hear the noise? That way I can tell for sure what's going on. You can upload it here with your response.
