Default '05 A4 Cab Vibration/Shutter

Just picked up a 2005 A4 Cab with 20k on it. The car has a shake/vibration/shutter on the highway at about 60-75 miles an hour. It can't be felt in the pedals or steering wheel. You can feel it in the seat - both the driver and passenger can feel it. It's not all the time.

The dealer says all convertibles do this? Does not seem to make sense to me with the price point of these cars? Any thoughts would be appreciated?

Thanks

take it to a garage and have the tires checked for unusual wear and make sure all of the wheels are straight. Alot of the cabs with cvt transmissions have shuddering problems at very low speeds due to clutch pack failures in the the transmissions. And convertibles dont shake, tell the dealer to stop being cheap and address the problem, thats just bad business
