need to rool out the other possibilities first as it is highlt un likely but we send our shafts off to a place called HLSmiths for ballancing and center bearing replacement.
just replace the bushes first before you get to worried

Just out of interest, have you checked the exhaust. Herman gave all these symptoms, although he wouldn't rev past 2 1/2. Cause of the problem was loose wadding in the back box that had plugged the tail pipe. Simple temporary solution was a firm shove with a 2' breaker bar and drill a series of 12mm holes in the silencer to let the gas out in case it plugs up again whilst waiting for the replacement.

The exhaust seems fine but I will check it but the problem was only when it is at full working temp and I even have trouble getting throu mot's as the exhaust takes forever to get hot so I don't  think it could be that

No codes, no warning lights on?

Sounds like a misfire - check plug wells dry and not filled with water or oil.
DISS pack is at rear of engine towards passenger side - follow plug leads back and you will feel it.
Use the old trick of removing one plug at a time and with lead still connected short out plug body to earth (a jump lead can be used) and ensure good spark.  Could also pull one plug lead at a time, start up and listen for difference in engine note.

just make shore you wear thick rubber gloves when pulling the leads out or you will get a nice suprise like i did lol

No mate you wrong=Get someone else to do it for you

LMFAO
