1998 ML320 - Drivetrain "Clicking"

Hi Gilly;
Hopefully, this is the last problem (but may be the worst of the bunch).
Regardless, I just got this vehicle, and it currently has 118k miles on it.
It runs fine (other than the ESP/BAS dash light on), but I've noticed that when I accelerate really hard, that I get a series of "clicking/clunking" noises out of the drivetrain.
It does it for several seconds, and stops when I let up on the accelerator. It makes no abnormal sounds in everyday driving.
It doesn't feel like u-joints or something like that is "loose", just sounds like I'm about to break something if I don't let off on the accelerator.... :-(
Any clues??
Could this be related to the ESP system not working correctly??

Thanks!!
