Keep in mind that this is rarely works/doesn't work scenario. Below a certain level it will not show up at all. Then it is a noisy line. You start losing packets. CAN is fault tolerant so they get re-transmitted. Once again you may or may not notice. Especially if you don't have a lot of traffic on the bus. Next you start getting quirky non repeatable issues. That might get attributed to other things.
