-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, just wanted to share a little.
Had an issue with the car vibrating at high speeds for about two months now.
Eliminated it coming from the wheels (swapped wheels from another car to test).
Dealer has replaced the final drive (driveshaft).
Vibration is still there.
They're replacing motor mounts next Wednesday (doubt it'll fix it).
Car vibrates at 71-78 and the vibration is always different (more/less, etc).
Also, when idle, and the RPMs get revved up to about 1900-2300 there's a noticeable vibration in the seat (that goes away abouve 2400).
Dealer is refusing to look at other parts that could be the culprit.
Tried calling other dealers - they are refusing to look at it because I'm already working with my current dealer.
Fingers crossed that I end posting a solution at some point. 20 months left on the lease...
