In the Da Vinci Pro machine, the Z Axis threaded rod is only held at the bottom part of the rod, just above the stepper motor. The way it is constructed makes it possible that this rod will swing around just a little, generating Z axis wobble.
As you can see in the video, this wobble is very minimal and the higher the print bed goes, the less room the rod has for any wobble at all, but in theory, this could cause a problem, so why not do something about it.
On thingiverse I found the "Da Vinci 1.0 Pro Anti Z-Wobble" made by user Chixxi, and he gave me permission to include his part in my video. His part stops the Z Axis wobble and is very easy to install.
Here you can see a video I shot after the part was installed:
