Transmission/Clutch problem
I have a bad driveline shake...
I first noticed it when in traffic. I would leave the car in first and bring it up to about 20MPH then decelerate down to about 15MPH and get a horrible driveline shake like the clutch is not fully disengaged....
So I am wondering if this could be a bad slave cylinder, or clucth? I bought the car with abot 12K miles and it was owned by an older lady...maybe she burned the clutch out?
My car is a 2005 MN6 it has 30K
Thanks in advance,

I'm trying to imagine what you're experiencing. Is your clutch slipping? Put it in 2nd and around 4K rpms give it WOT. It you see the revs jump without the car increasing much speed then your clutch is shot.
If you're drivetrain is shaking under acceleration and decceleration then your motor mounts and/or transmission/diff mounts are probably shot. When you accelerate does your shifter move a lot? If so then that could be your problem.
