Grinding sound when shifting from park/reverse. Chevy Impala.

Just got the pressure control solenoid replaced with a new one in my 04 chevy impala. Now she shifts like a dream. No more hard shifts or stalling when accelerating. Problem now is whenever I shift from park or reverse to drive it makes a grinding noise for about 2 seconds when I start accIelerating. It only makes this noise when I first shift out of park/reverse to drive. And I never had this problem before the PCS was replaced. Can anyone tell me what's wrong and the severity of the issue?

    Any incite will help guys! I was going to make a cross-state trip Thursday night! Really need to know if it'd be best to just get a bus ticket before it's too late or if the situation itself is minor and I can take care of it when I get home!
