Check your flex discs. There are two.

Also, when was the last fluid/filter change?

+1 on the flex disk/s. That's probably the most common cause.

Edited to add;
When looking for help with a car, it's usually a good idea to mention what model and year it is.

I had about 5 degrees of rotational play on my differential input shaft when the car exhibited those symptoms.
