Road noise

Post by 4flats »

So I love the car but I do like some peace and quiet sometimes.
I get a lot of road noise in the car that varies greatly on road surface. Not sure if it is the rubber floor matts, a wheel bearing going or something in the suspension telegraphing every bit of the road into the cabin.

Any thoughts on common areas to look at first?

you can definately get crazy chasing the quiet life, I have done the roll on rubber type sound control, definitely does something to overall quality not sure i would even say its the rolling noise, just makes it sound more solid to me when you shut the door even. I have tried the spray in stuff now also not sure I would do that again unless it was on some $$$ resto, tires as others have said also play a huge part
