The last time I had an ML with a sloshing noise, it ended up being water trapped inside the step bars. Taking the end caps off let the water out and fixed the problem. Of course, if you don't have the step bars, I don't know where to lead you.

Yes, it's water. What's happened is that you drain plug by the rockers are plugged. Unplug the drain plug (you can actually pull the rubber plug out and replace it after draining) and you'll be fine.
