There is a known issue where the shaft fits too loosely in the bearing, from the factory, and slowly starts to wear the shaft down. The bearing is usually fine. This can happen at either end of the jack shaft or drive shaft but the PTO side of the drive shaft was common. Since you are feeling it in your left foot that's where I would look.

Yes my 13 had it from new.
Remove your secondary and take a look at the axle bearing.

I had the same problem.
Felt it in the board on the left side.
New beatings with some loctite retaining compound on the shafts fixed it right up!
