Hello all,
1988 260E - 200K miles

For the past week or so I have noticed that when I accelerate or decelerate, even though the road is dry , the car sort of fishtails slightly. i.e. I slam the gas pedal to accelerate, the rear slightly throws to one side. I take my foor off the gas pedal to decelerate
and the same thing happens . It's as if one of the rear wheels hesitates or has a delay.

It's a scary feeling when you're on the highway and this happens.

Could it be a bad CV joint, a bad differential or loose control arms?
Please help.

Thanks
