1981 Mercedes 300D C.v Joint problem
Hey I was wondering if somone could help me diagnose a problem.
When I turn right at a fast speed 40-50km I get a repeated clunking sound, Any ideas on what this could be caused by?  The sound is coming from the front and happened before the the new repairs. I just changed my front wheel bearings, break discs/pads (I thought the sound might have been my bearings but no such luck) Last edited by drskipper; 10-12-2007 at 03:20 AM.

Mine started out as a minor repetitive squeal and went to to what sounded like someone banging on an aluminum garage door with a metal trash can. That was a real head turner

Hey I have another question the C.v joint is there any guides on how to do that I cant find any and my manual has nothing.(hanes)
I also was wondering is it better just to replace the axle with the c.v joint and is it the same type of axle as the back or do I need front specific axle?
