What's wrong, please?? Click to expand... Has it always been like that or just started to happen? have you checked the ATF (automatic gearbox fluid) level?

Common fault on nearly all MBs, most noticable when backing on/off or on downshifts. Could be a worn diff, but I think the couplings would let go well before then. Jack it up, and have a looksee. Turn the prop back/forth by hand and see where the play is. Will
