Need help with vibration!

Alright guys i have a vibration when i am rolling to a stop light or at low speeds and not giving it ant throttle, if i'm going through the gears or on the interstate then its nor there but when i go to come to a stop or just basicly not giving it fuel and letting it cruise say around 10mph then it is very noticeable! I thought it might be my clutch at first cause the throw out bearing is starting to squeal, but if it was the clutch wouldn't it vibrate somewhat all the time, i then thought it must be a u-joint but i climbed under the and everything seems to be tight except maybe the back one were it almost looks like the caps have moved alittle bit? Please help me, its driving me nuts Thanks guys!

Check in neutral for u-joints, it unloads the drive system. The rear one is probably shot.

G56? There is a TSB out regarding vibration at idle only due to a bad dual mass flywheel. Some have been fixed under warranty.

Well i think i fixed it guys! I took the drive shaft out today, and sure enough the rear joint was toast! I had bought 2 u-joints planning on changing them both but didn't have enough time so i just did the rear for now! I drove down the road and no shake or vibration! Thanks for all the help guys!
