Operating Condition - Vehicle is Moving
- Depends more on how the vehicle is operated.
- Speed-related
- Related to vehicle speed
- Pitch increases with vehicle speed. Refer to SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING CHART - TIRE NOISE/VIBRATION .
- Noise occurs at specific vehicle speed. A high-pitch noise (whine). Refer to SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING CHART - DRIVELINE SYSTEM NOISE/VIBRATION .
- Loudness proportional to vehicle speed. Low-frequency noise at high speeds, noise and loudness increase with speed. Refer to SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING CHART - DRIVELINE SYSTEM NOISE/VIBRATION .
- A low-pitched noise (drumming). Refer to SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING CHART - ENGINE NOISE/VIBRATION .
- Vibration occurs at a particular speed (MPH) regardless of acceleration or deceleration. Refer to SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING CHART - TIRE NOISE/VIBRATION .
- Noise varies with wind/vehicle speed and direction. Refer to SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING CHART - AIR LEAK & WIND NOISE .
- Related to engine speed.
- Noise varies with engine RPM. Refer to SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING CHART - ENGINE NOISE/VIBRATION .
- Vibration occurs at a particular speed (MPH) regardless of engine speed (RPM).
- Related to vehicle speed
- Acceleration:
- Wide open throttle (WOT).
- Engine induced contact between components. Inspect and repair as necessary.
- Noise is continuous throughout WOT. Exhaust system or engine ground out. Refer to SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING CHART - ENGINE NOISE/VIBRATION .
- Light/moderate acceleration.
- Tip-in moan. Engine/exhaust noise. Refer to SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING CHART - ENGINE NOISE/VIBRATION .

- A wobble or shudder. Refer to SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING CHART - TIRE NOISE/VIBRATION .
- Wide open throttle (WOT).
- Depends more on where the vehicle is operated.
- Bump/pothole, rough road or smooth road. Refer to SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING CHART - SUSPENSION NOISE/VIBRATION
.
- Noise is random or intermittent occurring from road irregularities. Refer to SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING CHART - SQUEAK AND RATTLE .
- Noise or vibration changes from one road surface to another. Normal sound changes.
