I do not have all of the detail that you are requesting as I write today but will be glad to gather it and forward. I have `04 CS with the same nagging vibration issue. Purchased car in Nov. `03 and issue has been there since. Multiple road force balances, multiple alignments, two new Conti front tires, now 4 new Perelli tires with two new rims. Same as before. My dealer drove all CS on lot. of 7, 6 had same vibration. They have been trying but to no avial. I know this dealer/owner well, all of the service guys and they are really at a dead end. It would appear that as wide spread as this problem is that Porsche is simply not fessing up to the real issue unless they themselves do not know but I seriously doubt. For reps to say that this is a characteristic of the car is embarrassing to say the least. I love this truck, I hate this vibration. I had hoped that Porsche would fix, `05's would not have issue but now I have seen a few posts from `05 owners stating that they have the same issue. That amazes me that they are still putting them out with this defect. I do intend to find my exact car without this issue working with my dealer. If Porsche will not work with them or support, I fully intend to engage legal council to solve this matter.

Well, I just read your post and there is not much I could add to it given my experience to date with my CS and local dealer. While my dealer has tried in my opinion, they are noticably frustrated that I am not happy, I think they are frustrated with Porsche and really do not know where to go from here. I have gone thru all of the alignment, road force balancing, two new front tires, now four new tires, with 10K miles on original Conoids. They pulled 4 Perelli's off Cayenne on lot, put them on my car and I drove. Ride for the most part was smooth. I told them that if I did not accept this as a fix I would really be out of line. They then contacted Porsche, ordered four new Perelli tires and when I picked up the car on Friday to leave town, same issue. Tech stood there and said, "I am not happy with them, if the 05'sa do not have this issue, you need to trade this car in". So, could it be the rims with the new tires that I need. Who the #@#@# knows. I love this car except for this horrible vibration and shimmy (55-78 mph). I have about had it and have no intentions of paying more to roll into an `05 that does not have this problem. This really stinks. :help:
