Some time ago my 190e made a clunking sound in rythum with the wheel turning underneath and on the left rear side when I turned left to hard or hit a major dip. It only does this upon acceleration, not coasting or deceleration to the left. If I let it set a while it would not do this until it went a few miles. then it quit doing it for some time, not a sound. Then after a time it started again. I took all the extra weight out of my trunk and that did it, not a sound for some time. Now it is starting to make the sound again. You turn left on acceleration and there is a metalic clunka clunka some times. I also have a lot of drive shaft slap with shifting down as I approach a stop. But it has been like that for 50 thousand miles. It almost sounds like its in the wheel or something in the left rear. Anyone have an idea what to look for before I jack it up and look??
