Your 245 has a two piece driveshaft with a center support bearing in a rubber mount. If you have over 100K miles on this it most likely needs the universal joints and the bearing/mount replaced. To be sure jack up the car and support it. Take it out of gear and go under and see if the driveshaft is loose in the middle where the bearing is and check the ends for rust on the joints or slop. Not to hard to do this job if you have tools and a big vise to clamp the driveshaft in to replace the joints.

Best of luck...
