Vehicle wheel imbalance detection

Abstract

A system includes a computer including a processor and memory, the memory storing instructions executable by the processor. The instructions include instructions to detect body vibration of a vehicle body over time and to calculate wheel vibration of each wheel of the vehicle over time. In response to detection of body vibration under a first body vibration threshold, the computer calculates a baseline wheel vibration value for each wheel based on the calculated wheel vibration for each wheel, respectively. In response to detection of body vibration above a second body vibration threshold, the computer compares the calculated wheel vibration for each wheel with the baseline wheel vibration value of each wheels, respectively. The computer identifies a wheel imbalance in one of the wheels when a difference between the wheel vibration of the wheel and the baseline wheel vibration value of the wheel exceeds a wheel vibration threshold.
