I have a 1990 240 DL SW. I hear a clunk (rather Thuk (Not very mechanical)) sound when I am just moving of from the standstill .
It happens only the first time when I start and the car and start moving .It does not happen
when I stop at traffic light or simialr situations after the initial start from the stop .
There are no shudder or odd vibrations in the car at that moment.
It started happening when I had replaced rear shock absorber a year back.
It mostly comes from left side and so far has happened only once on the right side.
It does not happen if I start softly i.e. release the cluth pretty smoothly.
It has not got worse but is pretty consistent.I recently have put 21 MM sway bars also on the rear.
What could be the issue .I have checked the bushings visually only and they do not look cracked .
Regards
Gopesh
