e320 4matic wagon
opened pandora's box on my w210

Visited my dad's shop this past weekend to get my w210's motor and tranny mounts replaced and also looked at for a strange noise coming from pass front wheel well only on hard left hand turns @ 40+mph upon acceleration. Sounded to me like my 18s were rubbin on something, figured it would be a quick fix...boy I was wrong. To make a long story short....it ended up being an exhaust clamp towards the rear of the exhaust that was not rotated properly and when the engine was torqued on left-hand turns it was vibrating against the tranny tunnel....strange In the chase of this noise also replaced, my wheel bearing, rebuilt the 4matic front half shaft cause the boot had a rip in it and the rear ujoint had a notchyness to it. Also replaced outer cv joint boot for a rip in it too. Anywho...just thought I would share my experience.
