Good evening, my 2014 JSW has been gradually developing a shudder coming from either axles or transmission. It has become bad enough that I decided it is time to fix it. This happens when the car is at stop and I apply gas gently. It is particularly bad when the car is under load, e.g. when at red light on incline and I am applying gas gently when the light switches to green.. Besides the shudder, there is a noise coming under the front end which sounds like broom handle hitting ceiling fan blades. This all goes away as RPM is increased. If I switch to manual mode and start 1st gear with little more gas, none of this happens. 129K miles, no MIL on dash. I am trying to pinpoint the problem, your input, as always much appreciated.
P.S. There is very mild chatter coming from engine when running idle. I suspect this is flywheel. Not sure if the shudder is related to flywheel, though.
