2009 ML63 AMG Vibration/Shutter Problem
While driving normal speeds on side streets or highway I get this shuttering sound accompanied by hard vibration feeling in the cab of vehicle. Had the CV joints replaced but this did not resolve problem. Not a smooth feel when this sound happens. It doesn't matter whether Im accelerating or coasting at various speeds, it happens. Uploaded video clips so sound can be heard.

Spot on! It was determined that it is a torq converter by AA Drive Line, a transmission and driveshaft specialty auto service. Found other material out there that supported this issue. Thanks for reply

Did they end up changing the torque converter out for a new (or remanufactured) one? What did they charge you if you don’t mind my asking? Another member on this board got whacked ~$3900 or so by a dealership.
