05 SE V8 slight bucking at stop lights?

Greasing definitely gets rid of the driveshaft clunk. My buddy's dad, a mechanic, pumped grease into all but 2 (front) zerk fittings about 6 months ago when my 4R had about 18k miles. It made a big improvement, but didn't quite eliminate the clunk (perhaps due to the 2 zerks he couldn't quite reach b/c of the non-flexible grease gun attachment). I just took my 4R to the dealers 2 days ago for the 30k service and the driveshaft clunking is gone, at least for now. I know it'll come back with time. I think it's best to do it with every oil change.

Zert

Ok, I guess I will ask the question. In laymans terms, what the hell is a zert? Should I just not even mention this to the dealer as I don't want them screwing something up in the future. The driver set movemen has stopped for now so I am not going to bring that up at the moment. I will be going in for an oil change next week.

A grease fitting.
