This has been discussed quite a bit on a German speaking jimny forum.

Apparently it's linked to the chain driven transfer case (which would explain why it appears to be emanating from behind the gearbox).

There is talk of a dealer-installed kit to solve the "problem" but noone over there has actually managed to source one AFAIK.

Some gen3 jimmies do the same thing (same transfer case) and I'm not aware of it causing any further issues.

Now Charlies solution I really like, the 3 and the 4 at home both do this.
Thanks Charlie.

This guy has the same problem in the video, his Suzuki dealer said they had noticed it on their demonstrator and explained the fix.

This video at the beginning shows him with the judder 50 seconds in

I sometimes hear a little “grrreet”noise when I take off in first? Sounds like a cowling resonating to an rpm for a 1/2 second

Mine does it too. A lot of peeps on here have reported the same. I am of the opinion that if everyone's is doing it, then it must be one of the Jimny's little quirks??
