I have the following noise on my 2000 year XJ8.

clicky.

Things to note:
1. The noise is only from 1-2 and 2-3rd gears.
2. It doesn't do it 100% of the time (although more often than not).
3. It seems to happen less with a more aggressive throttle or in Sport mode.
4. The box shifts fine in all gears/reverse no clunks and no obvious slipping.

Any ideas?
