A Vibration when foot removed off Accelerator!

06 HSE, just had all bushes replaced with polybush. its been in for geometry. She drives well no pulling to either side even when braking. The steering wheel feels solid.

But removing my foot of accelerator it vibrates from underneath...... then when I press the accelerator again I get a slight knock??

Any ideas please?

I had similar symptoms, excluding the slight knock. Mine was front diff. Had it replaced and now it's like a new car! Does it drone when coasting? Maybe a just barely perceptible vibration also?

check the alloys first, off to yer tyre shop and get em to spin the wheels on their machine to a) inbalance b) alloy wheel buckles Thumbs Up

another easy option, weather dependent, get underneath and see if the centre prop moves left or right and also the half shafts. Given the age of yer d3, might be prop related Thumbs Up

BTW stick it in off road height whilst yer underside and have someone standing by the car just in case it goes down.

AND LEAVE YER DRIVERS WINDOW OPEN just it case it self locks Whistle

Yes it does drone when coasting at 50+
