Vibrations in my daughter's Fiesta
My daughter has a 2010 Ford Fiesta. When accelerating, between 50 and 60mph, the car judders (a bit like poorly balanced wheels). If she releases the accelerator, the juddering stops - which it also does at the same speed if the clutch is depressed.
We've had the wheel balancing checked and it's fine. Could there be a problem with the drive shaft?

Probably the clutch.
