I found the problem with the right engine mount. I remember one on a Mercedes Benz E320 that came in for a rear wheel bearing noise. Over the years, I have had vibrations that gave me a run for my money. It all boils down to the frequency of the vibration.
When it comes to vibrations in the drivetrain (engine, transmission, driveline and differential), these vibrations can all be synchronized with engine RPM or tire RPM. There is no one simple way to accomplish the task. Many times it is easy to use a stethoscope or even grab hold of the coil spring and turn the wheel to both hear and feel the vibration that is caused by the rough wheel bearing, but what about a wheel bearing on a vehicle with torsion bar or leaf spring suspension? This adds to the difficulty of finding the problem. I think most all of us have had our fair share of wheel bearings that would talk as the vehicle is driven.
We can call this “getting a direction” so the vibration or noise can then be pinpointed with other tooling or testing. This might start with a test drive and listening and observing the operation of the vehicle while it is being driven around corners, over bumps and on smooth roads, all while trying to duplicate the concerns of the customers. NVH problem analysis starts out much as any other problem analysis by gathering a lot of information over a wide area. Each of these tools has their place and should be used as the need arises. Over the years, I have used several different types of tooling to find the causes of NVH reed tachometers, the Chassis Ear®, stethoscopes and the Pico NVH kit, for example.
Keeping these two things in mind can make the finding of the problem a lot easier.Īlbin Moore using his hands and a stethoscope to find a rough wheel bearing. When it comes to a vibration, the only difference between the slamming of a door (which creates a noise and a vibration in the vehicle) and a vibration that will make the dashboard rattle, is the frequency of the vibration and the amplitude (harshness) of the vibration. Over the years, many different pieces of equipment have been used to point the technician in the right direction when tackling noise and vibration complaints.īefore I go too far on the subject, we need to understand the causes of NVH that cause our customers to bring their vehicles in for diagnosis. Just make sure to wash it first, thanks.The world of NVH (noise, vibration, harshness) diagnostics can be rather interesting. Once you’ve found a clitoral vibe you love, you can easily toss it in your bag, tuck it into a drawer, or (depending on how incredibly discreet it is) leave it on your dresser, resting assured knowing no one will have any idea what it is. Not only can this make the process of buying one feel less intimidating, but it can also make sex toy storage a lot easier to come by. Whereas penetrative toys can be large and clunky, clitoral vibrators tend to be smaller and more discreet. Luckily, this type of toy runs the gamut of intensity and price point, so you can narrow your search to the clit-centric genre and trust that you’ll find what you’re looking for, no matter what that might be. One example would be a seriously excellent clitoral vibrator-or, depending on your preferences, a few seriously excellent clitoral vibrators. There’s no right or wrong way to build a sex toy collection, but there are a few particularly easy places to start.
