If you have a leaking piston ring you would be seeing smoke coming out of your exhaust most likely. Not have your car start shaking.
Most likely not an issue at all. These cars tend to have vibrations no matter what. My seats are always vibrating, rattles everywhere, shifter wobbling etc.
I have stiffer suspension and bunch of mods but still. Not a luxury ride at all.

Is there a big difference as far as these vibrations between an AP2 and AP1. I really don't have much in the way of vibrations, and my only rattle is from my comptech intake lid. I certainly don't have any vibrations in my shifter. I vote there is a broken mount somewhere. My car has less rattles than any other car I have ever owned.

What did you own before? A tractor trailer? Mine vibrates all the time, the ride sucks, the engine vibrates pretty horribly when idling down, wind noise, road noise, whistling noises, etc. Answer: Crank up the radio, and grab some RPMs.

Try this: if your seats are all the way back, they WILL rattle. Move them up one click. Being 6' and having big friends, I had to do this with both seats.

my06 is pretty much rattle free, but my00 use to many rattles, especially from clutch buzz, shifter use to vibrate at speed but never really pedals. I thought the 02's had the clutch buzz fixed.

Toyota Avalon, Infiniti G35, Nissan Xterra, Honda Insight (the original), Volkswagen Touareg. There really aren't any rattles or vibrations in my car.

Looks like those replying and saying they have lots of vibrations all have AP1's. One more reason AP2 > AP1 I guess.
