This study was conducted to perform experimental vibration testing on a light duty rear wheel drive vehicle. The vehicle is known to have excessive longitudinal acceleration response perceived after step changes in the driver torque command. The excessive response includes shuffle and clunk transients. Experimental testing was performed to understand the coupling between driver torque commands and peak shuffle oscillations. Data was also targeted to understand the coupling between driveline torsional oscillations and longitudinal vehicle vibrations. This data was also used to establish vehicle parameters for use in an analytical CAE model of the driveline and coupling. Driver applied tip-in …
