The Road Noise Evaluation Procedure, GMW8460, and Transducer Calibration Verification Master Test Procedure, GMW14172, shall be referenced for more detailed information for the following procedure.

Purpose. Determine the vehicle road noise sensitivity behavior independent of the road and tire influences and estimate contribution from rear and front axles or from each corner.
