Been noticing some buzzy vibrations in the shifter, pedals, and steering wheel while under acceleration. I'm assuming it is normal, engine getting broke in at 26000 miles. Although I am concerned because of my leaking cp3. Any thoughts? Thanks, John

Have you had the Power Steering hose TSB done yet?

Worked wonders for me.

Them's normal vibrations. The power steering hose TSB gets rid of most of it. 90k miles will get rid of the rest.

I have an early '04 as you can see. I have a vibration in the clutch pedal from day one. It is always there, but amplifies itself with flywheel speed. I complained about it and the dealer got authorization from DC to investigate. At dissassembly time, the clutch looked new as it should have with no observable flaws and the dealer claimed there was no problem. I asked him to remove the flywheel and clutch and give them to me for an evening. I have a large lathe at home and made a crank adapter. I mounted the flywheel and clutch on the lathe and spun it up. The flywheel was spot on true, balenced and correctly drilled for the pressure plate, but the diaphram spring on the pressure plate was misformed. Two of the fingers were .035" more proud than the others. I returned the parts next morning and DC has ordered a complete new assembly. It hasn't arrived yet, so I'm down for the count. As you can see, I am in Germany, no parts were in Europe and it'll be 10 days before I will receive them. Then there is Xmas. I think I will be lucky to drive it again before January.

After some experimentation, I've noticed a pulsating vibration felt when the engine is revved, at a standstill, with or without the clutch in. It comes in, noticably, at about 1875 rpms, around 5 thumps per second. Any thoughts about this? Thanks, John
