Default speedsix vibration

Lately my car has seemed to develop a vibration when coasting down hills at speed. This is noticable in both the wheel and shifter. It feels like what a bad u-jouint or bent drive shaft feels like. The car only has 2500 miles and is never abused. Any ideas?

Ok while its coasting are you applying the brakes? If you are, then you have bad brakes, if not then it might have something to do with your suspension, but i dont know alot about suspension, so i cant really help out. Just till babyhuey finds your post and he will most likely answer all your questions, oh and welcome to the forum, plz enjoy your stay.

Ok is the whole car vibrating, or is it a selective section of the car? It could be a drivetrian issue or a warped/misaligned brake disc. it is probably a drivetrain issue with the complex 4wheel drive layout. I doubt the suspension would have much to do about it but that doesn't mean it's ruled out. Take it to Mazda and have them run it through some tests, it should be under warranty and if they can't fix it, lemon law it. sorry I couldn't be much help.

Thank you for the response but it,s not brakes or wheels. I never felt the vibration before so it is something new. It,s not bad but vibes usually don't get better and I thought maybe it was a allwheel drive thing that was normal. Has anyone else experienced anything like this with there's?
