    check your swaybar ends. if i recall, they're plastic because there's very little stress put on them, but they have been known to crack. also, check out the other arms back there, as it's a 5-arm link, something could be broken/worn with the estimated mileage you're probably touching on the c36 (my guess is around 160,000 miles)

    i dont know what your problem is, but if you jack your car up and have a look around under the back would probebly be a good start.
    and to add to jnolte
    my diff is also stuffed at the mo and im in the process of finding another one!

    i have lifted the car up and i have not seen any kind of damage or problems. the car is at 135,000 miles and it only makes the noise when there as more the 2 people in the car...so if there is weight in the back. im going to try to change my diff. oil this week. ps the guys who's c43 broke down in bellevue area....i saw it today when i drive by and it looks sick.
