Default V6-- "clunk" sound when turning car off

I've accepted the V6 is a relatively noisy engine (dealer claims we just have noisy injectors). However, every rime I turn off the car there is a "clunk" sound that the dealer says is normal. Anyone else with a V6 experience this? My warranty will expire mid 2021 so I just to make sure I take advantage of it.

That is the tell tale sign (sound) of a worn SC coupler / torsion isolator, search this forum using those terms and you will find heaps of info about it.
Yes it is a warranty fix.

Mine does the same thing, since day 1. Dealer says its normal as well. 3 years and 35,000km later, still does it almost every time I turn it off
I have a service booked for next month and will ask them about it again

Mine doesn't make any weird noises or clunks. I don't think its a loud engine at all.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. I'll make an appointment to get the coupler/torsion isolator checked out.

I'm guessing he is referring to the supercharger which put simply is an air pump!
