The vehicle (where a record says)

A record is under an engine, a drive or a series only where it says so: the characters of the vehicle identification number filed with a complaint, its text, or what its document says it applies to. A record that does not say is kept as "not stated". The filed numbers and the documents do not tell 4WD from AWD.

Common on this vehicle:NoiseVibration or shudderAir conditioning or heaterLeakLoss of engine power, no accelerationLiftgate, rear glass or door lockWarning lightReduced braking

Record by record

6 records state a cause or a remedy. Each record is shown as short labels in the order fault → finding the cause → correction. Press a label to narrow to the records that state it.

A ribbon is as wide as the records that state both of its ends (only the commonest are drawn). A record that names several symptoms or components runs through each. Orange is records that say the fault came back or was not fixed. Results come from owners’ reports only; one that does not say is “result not stated”. None of this is a likelihood of a cause or a rate at which work succeeds.

    Vibration Analysis Worksheet Service Bulletin

    1. 1Fault

    2. 2Finding the cause

      Steps to confirm (in the document’s order)

      1. When diagnosing vibration, use the worksheet together with the Vibration Analysis - Road Testing procedure in the service information.
      2. Place the sensor where the vibration is felt: on the seat track for a seat complaint, on the steering column for a steering wheel complaint.
      3. Moving the sensor to other areas, look for the same Hz reading with the greatest amplitude.
      4. If a system balance was attempted and the vibration remains, check ring gear backlash at each tooth; readings should not vary more than 0.050 mm (0.002 in).
      5. Aluminum wheel/tire runout measured on the vehicle: maximum 0.030 in (.762 mm).
