Sometimes diagnosing a vibration can be tough, even for the most seasoned technician. In this video, Bernie tackles a vibration at 55 MPH on a 2007 TSX. This vehicle has had some work done before he got to it, tires were replaced, new ball joints and bushings were installed and new drive axles were installed.
See how quick and easy it is to set up the Intelligent Vibration Analyzer iVA and gain insight into Bernie’s diagnostic approach for vibration analysis.
The Intelligent Vibration Analyzer iVA is used to pinpoint the location of the vibration. With a single sensor place don the vehicle, the vibration is determined to be wheel speed related. Next a sensor is placed at each wheel, pinpointing the vibration to the right front wheel. To determine if the vibration is the wheel, axle or transmission, a sensor is placed in three locations along the right front driveline.
Finally the drive axle to axle stub union is found to be faulty. A new right front axle stub and right front drive axle are installed and Bernie rechecks his work, showing the vehicle now drives smooth.
