Bob, Joe-
When I had the Stromung installed, it took my mechanic several tries to get
the exhaust aligned perfectly so it wouldn't hit anything. My guess is that
you need to find a guy who is anal enough to get it perfect.

Our A4 has a Borla 2.5" that many people claim rubs and vibrates and doesn't
work right. Well.... ours works perfectly, only vibrates after driving a while
in deep snow (6" of fresh snow at night, driving half sideways on back roads,
imitating WRC at 1/5 speed). My mechanic tweaked the exhaust on this car as
well.

If it's not an alignment issue, maybe the snub mount will help- said to reduce
movement significantly, although the AWE Driveline Stabilizer is a lot better
(I don't think it works on anything but A4/S4s though). APR has a similar
product for S4s.
