Default Feels like "bump" while at a stop

I have a 2008 GX470. When at a complete stop at a light I feel like the car is "bumped" like from behind. It doesn't quite feel like the car is lurching, just a bump. It will do it several times while I am stopped. This went on for a little while and I recently noticed that it will also do it when the car is parked, turned off, and key out of the ignition. Any ideas?

See the "clunk" sticky at the top of this forum. Common issue with your driveshaft.

Grease the drive shaft...if it goes away, you’ve solved the problem...if it persist then you need to look elsewhere. The 08 should have the newer shaft. Also repeated bumps...hmmm not the typical symptom of the drive shaft clunk complaint.
