Editorial policy

Written to be checked.

Every article should help a driver make a better measurement or document a clearer pattern for inspection. Commercial claims do not outrank evidence.

The rules we publish by

Six rules. No exceptions.

01

Authorship

Articles are published by the NVH Lab Editorial Team and reviewed by ANEA LLC. The editorial perspective is informed by 15 years of professional experience in the automotive NVH industry.

02

Independent publication

Related automotive NVH analysis is also published at Car Noise on Substack. Relevant articles may reference that publication when it adds useful context or supporting analysis.

03

Sources

Technical claims should link to standards bodies, regulators, peer-reviewed research, manufacturer documentation, or clearly labeled secondary testing. Unsourced numerical claims are removed.

04

Data stories

NVH Lab data is identified as a live aggregate preview, formula-based estimation, or illustrative reference data. Public summaries never expose raw recordings, user identities, routes, or locations.

05

Comparisons and money

Competitor roundups use disclosed criteria. App-store availability and pricing are checked at update time. Sponsorship or affiliate relationships, if introduced, will be labeled.

06

Corrections

Material corrections update the modified date and are noted in the article. Readers can report an issue at contact [at] nvhlab.com.
