Introduction

NOTE

It is important to note that this TSIB addresses unusual interior noises caused by slight variations in certain parts, and by carefully following the instructions in this TSIB, these noises can be improved. Your customers must be aware that some level of wind turbulence noise, especially in cross wind conditions, is present in all vehicles. A vehicle, such as the LS 460, which is one of the quietest vehicles on the market today, may tend to draw attention to normal wind turbulence or rushing sounds because of the relative absence of other ambient noises.
