Exhaust could also be possible, if the jolt has disturbed the internals when you have driven over something. Does it do it at 1800 revs all the time (ie in neutral, 1st, 2nd etc) or only say at 1800 in 4th gear?

Also, is the rear mount on the gerbox still OK ?

If you think they are so bad, it shows what an idiot you are for spending £50k on one.
