Vibration/shake in drive train

3 month old '14 BRZ limited with auto transmission.
When starting out turning either right or left, my BRZ shudders and shakes ever so slightly. The car is in normal drive mode. Have you experienced this situation and/or what do you think could be causing this?

Its the Torsen diff locking up I bet, my manual '14 Sport Tech does it too, changing the diff fluid did nothing and the dealer thinks its normal.

Yep, a bit normal with a torsen (clutch style LSD would be worse). If the torsen in the Miata is anything like this one, it will get better as it ages.
