Default Question for the experts

Hi I have a question for anyone who might know,
I'm running a 2000 S4, 140,000 KM.
My issue is sometimes when I accelerate I get a vibration or a shaking feeling, like the acceleration isn't smooth. I have replaced my tranny mounts which were somewhat shot, my motor mounts are still very strong and I have done all the usual maintenance for my cars mileage etc.. Does anyone have any ideas, I was thinking its possible it could be my flywheel?

Thanks in advance.

It's really hard to say, maybe a snub mount, suspension arms, or a the diff mount.

I did my snub mount,
I know my front right strut is leaking and i ordered coilovers to replace all my suspension, but i don't think its suspension related because it is only when i accelerate. Is the diff mount a typical suspect on that as well?

Could it be a boost leak? When you have one you can get jerkiness upon acceleration. I'm not sure if that's the type of shake you're talking about though.

A boost leak sounds like it could be possible, what is the best way to test it and see where the leak is coming from?
