Some Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG owners report experiencing clunking and knocking noises during slow turns and while backing up, which may indicate issues with the steering or suspension components. These noises often occur consistently during maneuvers, both left and right, and may become more pronounced at lower speeds, potentially turning into vibrations at higher speeds, especially when accelerating. Additionally, some drivers have noted loud clunking sounds when reversing to the left, suggesting a possible link to the vehicle's steering or suspension system. The noise may also intensify when the vehicle cuts into corners sharply, disappearing once the car straightens out, indicating a relationship with handling dynamics. It is recommended that owners have their vehicles inspected by a Mercedes-Benz dealer or qualified specialist to diagnose and address these issues promptly, as they could involve critical components like CV joints, suspension parts, or drivetrain elements.
