Hello guys,

I have a 2004 E500 4matic with the following problem. When I am cornering with low speed (full left or full right) there is some vibration in the car, when the car is moving with wheel straight up it's missing. I am thinking it's something wrong with the 4matic system but I can't figure out which part of it exactly. The vibration starts to appear even when I do about half steering wheel turn and it's getting stronger and stronger when I keep turning till I go full left/right.

Also when fully cornering with very very low speed (no pressure on the pedal) you can hear a periodic noise.

Any help will be appreciated.

 

What have you noticed when the car is on a lift and engaged and stering turning bla bla -----is anything duplicated with no load!

 

Well the vibration appears when the car is moving, while standing still you can't notice any troubles.

 

That's cool, however, I asked "engaged" meaning on the lift engine in D, wheels turning and you moving the steering wheel from left to right -----what happens--what do you see on the shafts bla bla

 

On 4M the first suspect are CV joints.
Go on empty parking lot, close to your house, or shop, make full turn and give it some gas.
