What's causing the vibration in my Volkswagen Transporter?

The question
Hi, I have a problem with my 2004 Volkswagen Transporter T5. It shudders really badly when it reaches about 2,000rpm in all gears. When you accelerate hard it's so bad you cannot drive it (because of the vibration and lack of power). We have checked the air intake sensor, it's not that, and the diagnostics show no faults. We have just changed the long driveshaft and it made no difference. What do we do next?
Thanks Ken, Co. Galway

Hi Ken,
If the shudder stops when you stop accelerating then we'd suggest looking at the inner CV joint.
Let us know how you get on.
