Hi, Welcome to the forum.
The popping at start (go forward or backward) seems to be normal. It is a self test of the system.
The tranny problem some have (only AWDs for now) appears first at slow speed and it is a rattle sound, not a pop. For the unlucky ones who cannot have their dealer change it, it is getting louder and louder and keep the noise even at higher speed.
From what you define, you seem to be fine (and you have a FWD model).
