I had this issue on our 04cs. started driving and car started shaking, but not at all speeds. slow acceleration or fast acceleration did not matter, you never knew when it would start shaking. aftermarket warranty covered the drive shaft.

The Cardan Shaft (drive shaft) on 03/04 models were replaced under warranty a lot of the time very early in their life, a lot went bad due to a design fault. They were not supposed to have gotten into 04 production but did and we saw (mine included) a lot of them go in the early days. The speed dependant low frequency vibration and noise were the main symtoms.
(When trying to describe it to a dealer the word WUMMERING was used. saying it 3 times gives about the right noise and period.)
If not replaced, the word was that it would fail in the middle.

I broke the coupling on my fathers Cayenne S. I went to pull out of a side street and it sounded like the transmission was screwed at first. Sounded absolutely terrible.
At least for me it was very apparent. I am not sure how much labor was, all I know is it was just a few months after the warranty had run out. He was not pleased. :/

I antecedently pulled this joint apart on my s when i was installing the struts. i hyper extended the joint and all the balls fell out. I rebuilt it myself and took a hole day just to figure it out. the dealer just replaces the whole shaft. pretty easy to install the shaft, though. If you try to tackle it your self i could tell you the steps.
