Automotive diagnostics on dyno - Zepho - 05-07-2026

Hi everyone. I’m trying to diagnose a high-speed vibration that only happens under load, so I need to run the car on a dyno for a while. Is there a way to stop the mileage from increasing during these diagnostic sessions? Appreciate the help!

High-speed vibrations are notoriously hard to find without putting the car under load. I had a similar issue with a driveshaft vibration and spent half a day on the dyno chasing it. I used a Mileage Blocker from Dynotest https://dynotestpro.com/ to keep my odometer from racking up a hundred miles just from troubleshooting. It is a very smart tool because it doesn't interfere with the ABS or traction control systems, which can sometimes freak out during dyno diagnostics. I just plugged it in, ran the car up to speed until we found the source of the vibration, and the mileage didn't move at all. It is a very practical solution for any mechanic or enthusiast who does their own diagnostic work and wants to keep the car's history clean.
