Bernie heads to a shop to diagnose a vibration on an RV. The shop balanced all six tires and that helped a little, but did not remedy the issue. Connecting an iVA sensor to a static location on the axle for each wheel to measure vibration quickly identifies a problem at the left front (LF) wheel. Using a dial indicator to measure runout on the tire confirms excessive runout, and then a second measurement on the rim confirms a good rim. This tells us the tire is defective. The fix is finally confirmed using the iVa and the vehicle is fixed and we have another happy shop.
