I think you may have solved the problem. All of my years of 240 ownership, since 1980. I have maintained my cars with the belly pans intact.

Many months back I pulled the pan off of the 90 245 to inspect the rack and boots. I saw a bunch of issues that were going to need attention, parts to be ordered, and new bolts needed for the pan.

Then life got busy, Covid, a ton of other projects stacking up. Then there was the 93 245 in the garage with the front suspension and steering pulled apart, getting all knew bushings and hardware.

The needs of the 90 got put on hold because it was my daily driver with no backup.
Once I finished the 93, I left the pan off. The plan was to take it to alignment and then reinspect everything.

Well 1 month later what prompted me to start this post is that the 93 developed this problem for the first time. Now both cars were doing the same thing at the same time. And there are both belly pans staring at me from the corner of the garage.
