Had the tinkin' thing replaced once so for. Will be talking to my service manager this month about numerous things. One of which is the tinkin' driveshaft. If he has a new and improved part verses the current one I'm running, we'll replace it again.

Had the Tink with less than 800 miles on my '06 6-speed. Finally took it to the dealer, they replaced the driveshaft, Tink returned less than 300 miles later - I purchased and installed the Dennis Reinhart MMC shaft - problem solved!
