Recently, I've been noticing that my Q will shudder when I am accelerating away from a stop. It does not feel like it is coming through the steering wheel. It happens under light throttle and when the speed is around 20KM/H (12mph). It doesn't matter if I am accelerating in a straight line or turning, it happens. It also happens in both 1st and 2nd gear and does not appear to be interrupted by the gear change. If I apply more throttle, the shuddering is not as noticeable, which I think is because I pass the speed range where it happens more quickly.

I am thinking it could be a few things, but I'm not sure and would like NICO's input:
- Transmission? Could it be clutch chatter? The fact that it happens in both 1st and 2nd without interruption on the gear change makes me question that though.
- Engine/Transmission/Subframe mounts? This could cause vibrations, but it only happens when accelerating from a stop
- Differential? Clutch chatter in the VLSD? The fact that it happens both in a straight line and while turning makes me question that as well.
- Alignment?
