Vibration around 2000 rpm?

Hey everyone. Just waiting for my buddy at the barber shop when i remembered that I forgot to ask a very important question. When I'm driving my mustang (2011 v6 6 speed) I notice as I'm driving for example in 3 rd gear after I take my foot of the gas (still in gear though) and I'm slowing down a bit, once the rpms drop to just over 2000 rpms the car gets a big vibration.. It's so annoying and obviously feels wrong. This happens in every gear. Does anyone know what it might be??

If you can get under the car you should be able to wiggle them and see how much play they have. I've tried to doone myself on my old fox and ended up taking it to a mechanic. It should not be too much to replace if thats the problem but I'd get a mechanic to chek it out.

You say your warranty is over, is the 5yr/100,000 km power train coverage expired yet?
