3. If an obvious cause for an observed or reported
concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) engine accessories
before proceeding to the next step.

4. If the concern is not visually evident, verify the
symptom and REFER to the Symptom Chart.
How to Use this Diagnostic Procedure
Section
Noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) concerns
have become more important as
vehjcles have
become more sensitive to these vibrations. This
section is designed to aid in identifying these
concerns.
The section provides diagnostic procedures based on symptom. If the condition occurs at
high speed, for instance, the most likely place
to start is under Shake and Vibration While
Driving.
The road test procedure will tell how to sort the
conditions into categories and how to tell a
vibration from a shake.
A series of Road Test Quick Checks are
provided to make sure that a cause is either
pinpointed or eliminated.
Name the condition, proceed to the appropriate
section and locate the correct diagnosis. When
the condition is identified, the job is partly done.
Follow the diagnostic procedure as outlined.
Quick Checks are described within the step,
while more involved tests and adjustments are
outlined in General Procedures.
Always follow each step exactly and make notes
to recall important findings later.
driveline
It is important, therefore, that an NVH concern be
isolated into its specific
area(s) as soon as
possible. The easiest and quickest way to do this
is to carry out the Road Test as outlined. To assist
in the diagnosis and testing
procedure(s), use a
suitable approved NVH diagnosis tester.
Noise Diagnostic Procedure
Non-Axle Noise
The five most common sources of non-axle noise
are exhaust, tires, roof racks, trim panels and
( transmission.
Therefore, make sure that none of the following
conditions are the cause of the noise before
proceeding with a driveline

diagnosis.
In certain conditions, the pitch of the exhaust
may sound very much like gear noise. At other
times, it can be mistaken for a wheel bearing
rumble.
Tires, especially snow tires, can have a high
pitched tread whine or roar, similar to gear
noise. Radial tires may have this characteristic.
Also, any non-standard tire with an unusual
tread construction may emit a roar or whine
noise.
Trim panels can also cause whistling or whining
noise.
