I have noted some intermittent problems with the driveline....etc

Fabio,

It may be the center bearing/driveshaft support.try backing up real hard, does the clunking get worse? If it does, the park the car,shut off the engine, put the tranny in neutral. Then go underneath (from under left rear door) and grab the drive shaft and try pulling or pushing it around. It should not move. If it does, then you must change the center support.
