SHORTLY AFTER DELIVERY OF MY 1992 E250 (CA), WHEN MAKING SLOW SHARP TURNS FORWARD THE REAR-END WOULD "CHATTER". DEALER LOOSENED DIFFERENTIAL AND CHATTER STOPPED, BUT NOW IT RUMBLED WHEN DE-ACCELERATING. TOOK BACK AND THEY TIGHTENED - CHATTER RETURNED, TOOK BACK AND THEY LOOSENED IT SOMEWHAT - LESS RUMBLE BUT IT WAS OK. NOW AT 62,000 MILES IT IS RUMBLING A LOT MORE WHEN DEACCELERATING AND ALSO WHENEVER TRANSMISSION SHIFTS TO A HIGHER GEAR - SOMETIMES A LOT.
