    Harsh Vibration at take off

    Hi

    I have a W163 '02 ML270 CDI with 162k km on the clock that has a harsh vibration on take off from standstill. There is also a vibration when turning left (i.e. weight shift to the right). Anyone have any ideas besides engine and/or gearbox mountings? Any good way to test this without removing the mountings?

    Regards

    Darcy

    I have seen some comments, tips and solutions of this specific problem on P3. Try: http://www.pointedthree.com/disc/

    Look under W163 ML and select "search"

    Turns out once the engine moutnings were removed they were cracked. Replaced them with some new ones and all is running smoothly...
