Default K1 sounding rough

Anyone else's k1 sounding rough? Or just mine? at middle to high speed it starts, picked it up and when it gets to that point a horrible vibration goes through the car, I had a look and tried different things, and I've narrowed it down (i think)to the spur/slipper assembly, at that point I noticed if I held either side,(the nut on either side) it had 1mm play, is that normal? Also does anyone have ideas on what this could be?

Drive shafts not rubbing, car is brand new 1st use, so doubt bearing gone, but I will change and see, does no one else have that play in slipper assembly?

Tried changing bearing, also took both belts off and still the horrible vibration so must be coming from the middle somewhere
