Clunking into reverse (5spd) update

I had a few inquiries on this one from people on this board so I thought I'd post an update. This was one of many items on my checklist for recent warranty service. The "seeping" head gasket didn't qualify for a repair, but clunking into reverse apparently did.
Basically, the shifter would seriously "clunk" into reverse about 50% of the time. Shifting was also a bit stiff. It had nothing to do with the clutch.
Solution, what seemed like a significant tranny overhaul (eg., dealer had my car for 1 week). My service receipt says something about a shifter update kit? Anyhow, everything seems fine now. I'm glad to have returned that horrible SUV and have my baby back.
Just thought folks might like to know. If you're experiencing this problem, it could be a no brainer warranty repair.
