Hello everybody . So i have had this problem on my car before and it was fixed for a while now it is back .The Problem is that when i pull off the rear of my car shakes very badly, makes loud clunking noises like somebody is hitting my car with a hammer . When this first started i had the center bearing on propshaft changed because that worn out and the issue went away for about a month now its back . also when i pull off from the center front of the car there is a noise best way to describe the noise is “klklklklklkl” feels like something is vibrating that shouldent be and if push clutch back in during this noise it makes a loud thud.
Any help on this would be amazing i am stumped by this issue i will try to shoot a video of the problem and upload it

If it was cured after you replaced the center bearing the last time and it’s back, it might be that the drive shaft is bent or out of balance. If you’ve run over something in the past that could have damaged the drive shaft this could be the cause. Check the drive shaft for damage and missing balance weights. If you find any, replace the driveshaft or have it balanced. Also be sure to check the U joints. More info on that in the above posted article.
Good luck and keep us posted.
It’s very possible the same part has failed again. The quality of aftermarket replacement parts these days is terrible.
The problem has been resolved, I am so happy it took almost two years and i fixed it.
Mercedes the reason why this car is so comfy to drive is because Mercedes shove as many bushing as possible everywhere there are over 30 of the buggers on the rear end of the car, and the problem was these bushing have dried out and shrunk a bit causing some movement of the rear suspension components. The solution was not to replace them all as this would cost way to much. My uncle showed a trick with brake fuid and diesel as to how it resores bushing and makes them swell up. Simply re apply every 6 months and the shake is gone and the ride is smooth. Thank you for all the input
