In theory, it could pick up on subtle signals that humans usually miss.
In theory.
That sounds like one of those problems that have very very reasonable solutions with software and not AI. We're talking about amplifying sounds and picking up on some basic patterns? That has nothing to do with LLMs and probably even nothing to do with any sort of machine learning.
I'm pretty sure some mechanics have engine probes that do that, set the device to a specific part or element then run the car for a bit. From there is compares what it hears to various datasets then gives a report.
