Your car veers to the right or left when you are accelerating and makes a clunking sound?
This is likely to be engine mounts faulty!
they may not be totally persished, but just have gone weak allowing the engine to move more, this is exaduratted by a suddern change of speed or load!
but it could even be worn ball joints, steering column, but things like these you would proberbly notice at other times as well.
you can do a very simple test, though it is not conclusive, by lifting the bonnet and rocking the engine with your hands! this may require some force, there should be hardly any movement!
or not quite so easy and it requires 2 ppl, start car with handbrake on, place foot on brake and somehow rev the engine as well! while doing this slip the clutch in 1st gear
the other person watchs for the amount of movement in the engine bay!
if you are unsure do the same with a known good car of similar model and compare.
engine mounts themselves are not dear to buy but sometimes can be a pain to fit depending on car!
hope this helps a bit
