I have been having this same problem. I contacted my dealer and they said it's a common problem on these model years. What is causing it is the clutch pack is moving around in the axel. They quoted me $800-$1000 minimum to fix it. Yikes!!!!!! Did anyone else hear about this issue????

I was really hoping a fluid change would fix it and I may do it just to see.

Have not heard of this....but a fluid change and friction modifier can't hurt.

Default Mobile 1 and Friction Modifier change

I had the shudders on acceleration in a U-turn. I've never changed diff fluid before but watched a few videos and posts and was able to do a good job in about an hour. Mobile 1 75W140 and a 7-ounce tube of friction modifier eliminated my problem (at least for now). Including those and the gasket sealer, it cost me about $80 for material.
