Default "shaking"? sounds less like alignment and more like balancing issue...

...is there ice on your rims or a collection of dirt on them?

Kaigle's ended up rotating my wheels and that actually improved the tracking - they didn't think it was alignment. I'm not so sure but as of now I'm only down $18 instead of $75.

Default Who did it ? Big-O's first balance made mine worse too, then they did it a different way ...

and fixed it. Take it back to whoever did it. According to Big-O there are multiple ways to balance wheels, and I guess one method works a lot better for ours than others.

Default Audi and hack shops...

Be carefull who you take it to.. there are some special tools to get the alignment done right! I would suggest going to a Audi/VW dealer. I think they have both the same racks on them.
