There seem to be multiple fixes; there may not be any one vibration source. Some people have reported good results from changing one of the accessory mounting brackets (the one for the A/C compressor, I think it was) to a sturdier design. Others have gotten a substantial noise reduction by putting a snorkel on the intake to muffle intake noise.
