vibration and noise at around 75
I bought my 06 in October and it has a vibration and noise at around 75. The dealer has checked tires, wheels, driveshaft, and rebuilt the rear end and it still has the problem. Now they are telling me it is in all of the 06's with V6 and Manual tranny. I test drove another one and it does the same thing. Is everyone having this problem or is this just a small number. I need to know if this is in all of the 06 Stangs so I can decide if I want them to buy the car back.

Sorry to hear anyone elese has had to put up with this problem but I posted about the same thing quite a while back and have a long story to tell.
My 05 stang had a rumble and vibration at 72 MPH and have had the dealer and engineers try the following:
1-drive shaft (only made the problem much worse! after the new drive shaft was installed the whole car shook badly to the point of making the car rattle and squeek.
1- flang to the input of the rear axle. No improvement.
1 ring and pinion and one re-istall of the ring and pinion No improvement
They then ballanced the drive shaft with hose clamps which workes up to about 80 MPH but allows a subtile vibration which I don't like.
Now the rear end whines (I think is a bearing) coming from the left rear end.
The car has been in for this and other stuff about 10 to 15 times. I am kind of pissed! I am demanding a new rear axle and drive shaft but the dealer says it is up to a Ford engineer, (which the number of engineers have been cut) so I am waiting!
Last Sunday the check engine light came on and proved to be a fault in the fuel vapor recovery system.
All this and more within 10 months and 11,000 miles!
What do you all think!

RE: vibration and noise at around 75
no noises that ive noticed on my 06 v6 manual convertible. but I usually have the stereo on. also, its an American car and a convertible, so I expect it to have more rattles and noises than an import or hardtop.
