So, how does it work?

This amazing CD kit provides you with a powerful "ToneEngine" that enables you to simulate road-induced car vibration using your vehicle's CD sound system.

The ToneEngine provides you with a specific range of sound frequencies or tones. Each tone has been extensively researched and specifically selected for its vibration generating characteristics.

You will be able to control the exact amount of vibration generated using the Volume/Bass/Fade controls on your vehicle's CD player. This will enable you to induce and subsequently pinpoint the interior vibration or rattle you are looking to identify.


The ToneEngine

Comprising five PowerTones (each 4 minutes in length), it forms the core element of this product. Each tone mimics a different type of road vibration. Your car will be stationary with its engine off. You are then free to move around your vehicle’s interior (without having to drive!), enabling you to listen for — and pinpoint — the rattle, vibration or dashboard buzz you are looking to eliminate.


• RattleBuster will: enable you to pinpoint many annoying interior rattles, vibrations or dashboard buzzes. Its ToneEngine uses a specific range of sound waves which cause loose or unsecured objects to oscillate or vibrate.

• RattleBuster will not: pinpoint "road impact"-induced rattles, for example, a rattle caused by the sudden impact energy absorbed whilst driving over a pothole in the road. Be clear about what sort of rattle you are looking for.
