Default B8 Control Arms

Folks,

I've had my wheels balanced 6 times since purchasing my car in July 09. I've read multiple articles about vibration issues and the only fix is the replace the control arms.

6 balances later, dealer says it's fixed.

But I still feel it here and there. If I take my hands off the wheel, I can see it vibrate a little.

Last visit dealer said Audi Canada can only release the control arms once my car is in the shop. Left my car overnight and apparently Audi Canada said to do one more balance using different specifications. Helped a little but not completely gone.

Should I even bother with taking it back in? Will the control arms actually do anything? Will it fix other things like road feedback through the steering wheel?

I hate having to tell my collegues the reason I'm driving a Honda rental is because my wheels need balancing... Again.
