Under carriage might be damaged.

If you hear it only at cold start, meaning early in the morning when u first start thecar, it is common n according to CnC mechanic, normal. But if u hear it after driving for some time, then better go check ur undercarrige. Something could be loose.

Ah thanks alot guys!

Didnt hear it at cold start though....guess I'll have to check the undercarriage.

Shucks man...kena hit and run in sch last week...series of unfortunate events

Better to have your mechanic to check it out. Probably some screws or bolts missing or dropped out, so under carriage have clanking sounds.

That happened to my C class previously...

Hi lilium,

Does the sound appear after a long drive and you stop and off the engine? Or it happens when u start the car in the morning? Or you can hear it during the drive?
