Default what is this problem

I dont know if it is the rear or itself or gears.So here it goes when Im driving around and let off the gas just to coast or something it feels weird.Ill descibe it like this.You ever lug around a suitcase with rollers on it and one of the wheels has a flat spot and rolls funny it rolls then jerks rolls I guess that woud best describe it and it only happens when coasting.Is it because I have stickier tires in back(nitttos)?I guess it makes a jerking feeling and it only happens when foot is off hte gas and coasting.What could it be?

You an auto?

Might be your Transmisson mount. That kind of describes the clunking I heard when my transmission mount was torn in half. Couldnt' tell it was torn in half until I pulled it out of the car.

That's the only thing that comes to my mind from your description.

Obviously I'd put the car in the air and check the Shocks, Springs, LCA's sway bars, torque arm and end links and make sure everything is bolted up properly.

Also while driving try to see if you can determine more precisely where the noise is coming from.

If you can repeat it at low speeds, see if someone standing outside the car can tell what side it's coming from. or if it seems to be centered under the car.
