I used to have a car that had a vibration under the car and it turned out to be one of the mounts for the exhaust came loose and that was shaking and causing the vibration...

Other reasons ive seen and read are:

Wheel balancing on back wheels, weights sometimes come off causing vibration,
an engine mount can be broken/loose causing extra vibration to filter through the car....

hope this helps stan, good luck, its a complete pain when trying to figure such things out, could be almost anything but you have a few usual suspects which are best to check out first. Thumbs Up

its more of a engine type vibration but an exhaust mount might account for it. its not bad but certainly there when it shouldnt be..

@john, only got it when driving .. ..............................

Scarey

Got this on the web could be worn driveshaft?

Update 12/05: Colin Lewis of Sutton Coldfield reports (December 2005): "The vibration felt at low speeds is most defiantly the drive shafts that need replacing. Range Rover issued a bulletin in May 2005. My driveshatfs were replaced and now there is no more vibration."
