Steelman 60635 Wireless ChassisEAR

Product Information

ACCESSORIES - Kit includes 12 tie down straps, transmitter charging station and a canvas storage bag

MULTI-CHANNEL - Connect up to six (6) color coded sensor clamps to different locations to find a noise's sourceBefore we talk about using these chassis ears, always be sure to have one person driving the vehicle, and someone else monitor noises. Attempting to drive a car and listen for noises can lead to distracted driving. So while I have a Model X those with the same symptoms, especially those who had replacement struts, might want to have the SC do an inspection on the sway bar bushings.

NO WIRES - Bluetooth connected transmitter attaches to clamp or probe to wirelessly transmit data to a connected device The LUTIFIX Chassis Ear Automotive Engine Noise Finder Tool is a must-have for any car enthusiast. This tool can detect the abnormal noise of an engine, body, and chassis, alerting you to potential problems before they become major. It features LED indicator lights that change color according to the detected volume: green being minimum, red being maximum.USB BLUETOOTH DONGLE - Includes a USB Bluetooth dongle for use with laptop PCs that do not have built-in Bluetooth capability Approximately 1.5 months after last change of 77-C record: 77C_SecondAttempt (online-audio-converter.com).wav The OUFKAR Chassis Ear Automotive Engine Noise Finder Tool is an innovative 6-channel detector designed to help detect and adjust abnormal engine noises. Featuring a host computer with the integrated 6-channel signal receiver, this tool is uniquely equipped to locate the source of vibration caused by bearing, gear, valve, crank, or cylinder failure.

Chassis ears are a powerful tool for diagnosing vehicle noise concerns as they help pinpoint specific regions emitting sounds and noises. Chassis ears consist of microphones placed in different areas of the automobile, and each microphone will amplify unusual vibrations or frequencies. I'm in the process of fitting a double cardan prop shaft which should sort the prop shaft angle (standard prop shaft, rule of thumb is good for 7 degrees, double cardan good for 14 degrees). I'm going to have the custom gearbox-propshaft flange tested for run out, and replace the wonkey wheel. Chassis ears, wireless or not, are a great addition to a toolbox. Isolating suspension noise is just the beginning. Almost any type of noise can be detected by the transmitters units. Things like wheel bearing noise, transmissions, alternators, power steering pumps, even fuel injectors can be tested. The cheap Chinese clone ones have exactly the same issues, the microphones need to be subject to much stricter quality control.The KUNTEC 6-Channel Sensor Engine Stethoscope Kit is a one-of-a-kind technology that merges precision results with convenience. This advanced kit is designed to improve the accuracy and efficiency of several mechanical operations, such as metallurgy, building materials engineering, and large-scale equipment cutting. So it is certainly struts that get challenged by the problem which is UNKNOWN and is never been communicated to me so far. All we know is that it started happening after post-April (aka facelift) 2016 changes in front of the vehicle.

Tesla states that the rattle noise does not have a safety issue nor effect the performance of the car... well, for the safety issue I cannot comment, but comfort, feel and performance is definitely impacted by this fault! I feel I got a new car! Once of the great things about wireless chassis ears is not having a bunch of long cables to tend to. No more worrying about a cable becoming loose and getting caught in the axle. Something I have seen happen before. Positioning the transmitters in the proper locations is key for accurate diagnosis. Since the Steelman kit comes with four sensors, you can place the sensors in different locations to really pinpoint the noise.Diagnosing and pinpointing squeaks and rattles in vehicles has always been a challenge for automotive technicians. Indeed, some vehicles managed to make few thousands of km here in Norway and end up with the problem effects as before. As of the time of writing I am not aware of a "permanent" solution. It seems like there are several mitigation attempts, but none of them really succeeds. Rumor has it that there are several versions of the revision 1067361-77-C. At least three. The third being available approximately from Feb 2019 and is failing. Again, the problem might be not the struts, but something else in the front suspension design. You could try looking at the signal amplitudes from a chassis ear on a scope - the low frequency content usually dominates the overall amplitude particularly if you're only looking at a specific problem speed.

So one problem fixed, a new one created... the story of my time as Tesla owner... third time a new fault is created when going in to fix something else... UNBELIEVABLE!!
