It will isolate the exact frequency of the sound which can help determine the source. It reports the g-force the phone experiences and by moving the phone around to different places you can pinpoint the source.
Last year somebody traced a similar sound to the thrust bushing bolt bring loose and another traced it to the bearing at the top of the strut tower. |
I think I may have found it. I'm still testing, but I think it is the power steering pump. When its not in gear the idle is high enough that I don't get the noise. In gear I get it. I recently notice while sitting at a light when I turned my wheel the noise increased. When I centered the wheel the noise decreased, but didn't go away. I'm going to play with it some more, but I think that's it. At $200 for a rebuilt replacement I don't want to just throw a part at it.
