Still present, but very mild and not annoying enough to worry about. That makes me think it's either all four tires being slightly out of round and heating up as I drive, or something else in the suspension that starts out stiff and loosens up during the drive.
I've had the tires rotated and balanced, road force and all, five or six times over the past year, whenever I was in the shop for other things. Never made a lick of difference. At this point it has to be something further up the drivetrain but, like I said, it doesn't really bother me enough to start dumping money into the problem to try and find the root cause. Just mildly annoying.

When cold that's just flat spotting of the tires. All but the factory Dunlops I have experienced that with.
On mine I have noticed that when it's shaking if I take a moderately hard corner it almost always stops as I enter the corner and usually stays gone.
I'm thinking my problem is lower control arm bushings simply being too soft. I want to go urethane but I don't think they are available as a direct fit for a 5th gen. I may get them for a 4th gen along with the cam bolts for a 4th gen and see if I can make it work.
