[diesel_mercedes] THUMPING NOISE

 



Around the vetical bolts that hold the entire rear subframe to the unibody ~ there are multiple BIG rubber bushings in there that are labor intensive to replace but not terribly expensive .

Any time you see rust or suspicious cleanliness around a bolt , screw , nut or washer , it means said fastener isn't holding tight and needs attention straightaway before things get ugly .

Not quite sure what you mean Nate. I had a moving observer follow me as I accelerated about 10 or 12 times and they could see nothing unusual in the behavior of the tires. Where should I lok to find these clean (or rusty) marks?

Before you panic ;

Take the time to look hard at the rear sub frame bushings ~ they'll _look_ fine but have either clean or rusty marks around them if the sub frame is shifting from shot rubber bushings .
