Please define cold. What is ambient temp, garaged or not. How many miles?
In gear, does it moving or you are holding brake pedal? What happens if you put in N or P does it vibrates?

Does it vibrate in P or N?
Wondering if vibration comes from tranny or engine. Hows car perform first hour?
For how long car needs to sit before vibration comes back? Hours or overnight.
Any recent services?

If it were my car I would find some additional reasons to make that two hour drive for the warranty service!. I've driven 11 MBs past the 4-year/50,000 mile point and there have been a few things I've had to "learn to live with", since the cost of the repair seemed not worth the "cost" of the problem. Right now you're asking yourself if the vibration is worth a 4 hour round trip + the aggravation; when your warranty is up you'll be asking if it's worth that ride + about $1000.
