Well, let me tell you I think rotation has nothing to do with it, I just bought my car and it now has 600 mi on it. It does it only around 60mph, faster than that it will not do it. I believe it is a steering issue, not to concerned about it right now it is not that bad. However I really only notice it in the morning after it has sat all night, I will have to ck later to see if it does it. But I will address it to the dealer when i go in for an oil change.

Call me an alarmist, but I just re-torqued all the lugnuts to exactly 80lb/ft as per the manual. I have the tires at 32Psi cold all around, had a 4 wheel alignment done yesterday and have the data sheets to show that the car needed a left and right front Toe adjustment. So if there is any shimmy left, it has to be due to balance, but I have no way of verifying the accuracy of this.
