DESCRIPTION:
* Update in some of the attached TJ instructions.
This TJ is for vibrations at 80-135 km/h.
When writing a report, attach force variation measurement as instruction says.
In case of complain of Noise, Vibration or Harshness, NVH, and you need help from CMQ, some
“tools” have been created to help you to do a better and more precise fault tracing.
1. Question form to fill in and attach along with a vehicle report for faster support
2. Guideline to help you to sort out NVH related problems.
SERVICE:
N/A
VEHICLE REPORT:
Yes, together with a complete filled in attachment, included in this journal.
The attachment MUST be in English when sending in it to CMQ.
Use always function group 2180.
To view TJ attachments continue to next page. This TJ has two attachments.

Vibrations in SPA cars at constant speed and moderate acceleration (mainly 80 - 135 km/h)
All Vehicles
Wheels
Tyres equipped with cavity reducing foam
If the vehicle has foam filled tyres, start with swapping wheels from a
known good car. If vibration is gone, start refitting original wheels one
by one until vibration returns. Remove the wheel/s which are causing
the vibration and remove the tyre, from the wheel for inspection.
Before the test
Check the status
of the wheels
regarding wear,
damage, dirt and
tyre pressure.
(Comfort pressure)
Drive the car at
least 15 minutes
at Smooth,
straight and dry
road to get rid of
the flat spot.
Lift the car directly after
the 15 minutes’ drive or
demount the tires and
store them lying, if you
don’t continue working
with the car directly.
ok
If no force
variation machine
is available. Use
a donor car
(without
vibrations), swap
wheels with
problem car and
check if vibrations
are gone.
*The production requirement regarding force variation is set for a

If the force variation value is higher than that, the tire is not up to
specification and has to be replaced.
Claim tyres which are out of production specification to the supplier.

Ok
Release
vehicle
Analyse and report
Mass balance all
wheels at 3,0 Bar
Check force
variation and
match tyre to rim if
possible and
necessary.
Replace all tyres
with a force
variation that is out
of production
specification*.
Test drive the car
with comfort
pressure.
Most customers will accept minor
vibrations up to 120 N at Comfort
tyre pressure, however in some
cases to be able to satisfy a
critical customer it may be needed
to lower the requirement to 65 N
by following the service
procedures mentioned in
TJ 32161.
Measure force variation again and
save the measurement values:
1. with comfort pressure
2. with a tyre pressure of 3.0 bar
Send force
variation and
pressure values
