Interior Mirror Vibration
Do any of you suffer from the interior mirror vibrating when driving on rutted roads? Mine drives me crazy as most roads in the UK are bad. It vibrates in tune to the bass on the hifi too!

I had mine replaced about 9 months ago under warranty and the new one they replaced it with is starting to rattle just like the previous one. No, the music isn't bumping at full volume all the time as it's the wifey's car. The GS does have the Dunlop run-flats though which isn't quite that smooth of a ride. I don't know if it's a faulty design or what. I can't believe the part alone was just over $1000 granted the Homelink is integrated into it!

i thought i may have been the only weirdo that noticed it. my rearview mirror has shaken/vibrated since the day i drove the car home. it's especially noticeable at speed on the highway, with the moonroof open or closed.
didn't realize there was a bulletin on this. i'll have to check my VIN.

Had mine done because of the irritating vibration from routine road surface and sound system bass. Just squeaked under the TSB warranty limit. My service writer showed me the price of the parts alone . . . . $1298.00. All better now.

Did the replacement mirror still have the "invisible" digital compass display (meaning when turned off you cannot see the display) or did it have the compass showing through a black "square" in the mirror?
I ask because I am about to mod the mirror and figure I should get the TSB done first. .
