Default car vibration

i have a 99wrx wagon pretty muck stock only 3 inch exhaust aftermarket wheels. brought two months ago
had suspension checked wheel alignment and balance done
still vibration not overly bad but noticeable
if feels like it shakes entire car. also clutch jurks in first gear when taking off sometimes in second. i think its on the way out. perhaps this is part of the problem.

cheers

Check your rear inner CV boots.. if they split, it'll throw grease all over your diff, floor pan, etc.

It can also cause the vibration you're describing.

sounds like the tail shaft centre mount has gone. either that or your getting crazy clutch shudder.
