thumping

Hi. I've just bought my ml and already I've gearbox concerns. When pulling away quickly in 1st it seems to rev hard and then suddenly drop/thump into gear. Also, again when accelerating hard it feels like the traction control kicks between 1st and 2nd, it pauses and then goes again. Has anyone...

I have an E320cdi year 2000, when I take off from a stand still I get a brief thumping noise from the rear passenger side. This has been going on for some time now and is really starting to get to me as I can not find the problem. To eliminate the tyres I have swapped wheels corner to corner. I...

Hi all Weird one this. Fault only noticed whilst sitting idling as no chance of noticing it whilst driving: Sitting in car with it warm, idling, i noticed a rhythmic thumping/thudding coming from the front end, possibly the bulkhead. Sounds like a motor/solenoid/valve opening and closing...
