Is your DB on the same server as the App and/or Midtier? Is the DB server a cluster or otherwise shared? I've seen some DB CPU problems when there isn't enough memory allocated to the DB itself and/or is shared. Increasing the memory allocated to the DB resolves the problem. Other things I've seen is with the SQL settings - such as whether or not Transaction logging is turned on, hot backups, etc. Another thing to ask for might be a 15 minute SQL trace - if there's some workflow/job that's out of control, that would help to illuminate that for resolution on the ARS side.
