2000 caravan transmission making strange noises

Hi, My 2000 caravan is making strange creaking noises when the transmission shifts, I've noticed this on other caravans I've seen on the street.

Any ideas what may be causing this?

Thanks

If you're talking about a "ratcheting" sound it makes when it upshifts or downshifts, it's just the normal sound that the solenoid pack makes when it's shifting.

Is it is the little "Bzzzt!" that happens every time it shifts?

That's the normal sound of the solenoids that control the valves in the transmission.
