My car vibrates underneath the center console, when I drive at 20-30mph.

Will I need a repair shop to check this or can I troubleshoot this myself?

Have a helper watch as you put it in drive. And reverse, watch how much the engine moves. Excess movement and you have a mount problem.

Under the center console would be where the drive line for the all wheel drive drive shaft run's to the rear diff so I would be taking a close look at that and the carrier bearing that support's it. But that only kick's in when there is wheel slippage sensed it's not a all time all wheel drive.
