its a 4 wheel drive car your plantery bearing that holds the main drive shaft is most likely gone bad. check all the mounts and the axel replace as needed.

Same issue, to my surprise it was the turbo valves, rubber seal was cracked. On quite cheap repair it came back perfect. Check your onboard computer logs!
