DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
Step 3: According to each identified operating
condition (Column A, B,
C, D, E, F), check each
possible Steering System
NVH concern with the
detail symptom charts below.
Before conducting a vehicle test to identify a
NVH
concern carry out the following checks.
1. Check the tire pressures and adjust to
specification, as necessary.
2. Make sure the steering system fluid is correct,
the system is free of leaks and is operating
correctly.
3. Make sure the vehicle steering system
temperature is the same as described at the
customer interview.
4. All evaluations must take place in a relatively
quiet location.
5. The heating
- air conditioning (AIC) fan and
radio must be turned off during evaluations and
the windows closed.
