96 Es300 Clunk Coming Off Gas At 42-43 Mph

es300ed · December 13, 2010

My 1996 es300 has 151,000 miles and drives like a dream. I have one small problem which I hope isn't a sign of a large future problem. If I'm on the gas and hit about 42 or 43 miles per hour and suddenly come off the gas, I hear a slight "clunk". It sounds and feels like it's the transmission. Has anybody experienced this and, if so, is it a sign of a big problem down the road?

Thanks in advance for any comments.

Problem solved. All 3 motor mounts were bad and had to be replaced. No more "clunk".

glad you got the problem fixed, at least you had the courtesy to reply back and let us know what the problem was,unlike some people on this forum that ask for help then never ever report back as to whether they fixed the problem.

cheers fergi
