ISSUE
This TSB article is being published as a comprehensive Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH) diagnostic procedure. This procedure will also be in
2000 model year and future Workshop Manuals in the NVH Section.
ACTION
Utilize the flowchart diagrams to work a problem from SYMPTOM to SYSTEM to COMPONENT to CAUSE. The tools and techniques section is
expanded to include ALL NVH diagnostic "tools". There are expanded SYMPTOM CHARTS to assist with problem resolution. A revised NVH course
is available through regional training centers. The course is "NVH Principals and Diagnostics", course code # 30s03t0. This course utilizes the same
techniques that are in the revised diagnostic procedure.
Refer to the Noise, Vibration and Harshness Work Shop Manual Section that is included.
