Thanks for your reply. Funny enough after fixing my wheels i have diagnosed my problem to the drive shaft as well. Issue is not on the M4 but my Z06. It looks like cylinder deactivation + light acceleration on a hill = vibration in the driveshaft.

Note: It only happens during light acceleration because the car goes into V8 mode on heavy acceleration.
