Default New lr2 2014 owner

Hey everyone, I'm new to this forum and a owner of a used 2014 lr2. My cars warranty is ending at the end of the month so I took it to the dealership to do a test drive since I feel a little shake when I take off and slow down the car. I also did the car inspection from the dealership where they check everything, and the car came back with no issues. We test drove the car with the mechanic and he said the car runs perfectly though I asked if he felt the little shake and he said it may be the tires. I did a battery check and alternator check myself and everything checks out. I was wondering if anyone has this issue. It's weird but it's like a little shake ... Only when I slow down or take off. Other than that the car is pristine. 55000 km On it. Has anyone ever had an issue like this. Can tires really make the car noise and do a very light shake like the engine is about to shut off. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
And

Are you noticing any fluctuation in the tach needle when this happens?

Oh and welcome to the forum

Thank you so much for the quick reply.... No the needle is normal. I'm actually thinking it may be the tires. Can that cause this to happen? Do you recommend at least go and do a wheel alignment. Mechanic says he doesn't feel anything lol 🤔

Thanks I'll try ... Ive tried everything lol.. wheel alignment, balanced tires, checked everything. Apparently I'm the only one that realizes it. It's just a small wobble when it's about to change into second like you are driving over broken asphalt. It's like between 20 and 35 km... Anyway. I even tried fuel cleaners. The one landrover recommends... Best rated fuel and it still does it... I'm convinced it's the tires at this point.
