QUOTE(travis_ckf @ Nov 11 2009, 11:57 PM) Check back the thread here, there a mate named oce88 did an autofoam at KL which is very effective and he gave very positive reviews. Its pricey but i suggest u can consider it. Bro... i did test drive a Vious v Autofoam. Still cant eliminate the noise tat annoying me. |

QUOTE(travis_ckf @ Nov 13 2009, 05:51 PM) 3 solutions for u: Answer to ur solution1. Blast the music in ur car louder. I always do that  2. Put some ear plugs into ur ear 3. Sell off ur vios and get a mercedes/lexus/bentley. That shall do the trick  Sorry for my sarcasm but i cant help it when u cant stand the noise like most general cars.  1. If u louder the music n mix v the noise.... u will get mad easily. 2. I think tis is not feasible. 3. I'm comparing apple to apple. New n old vios is very much diff in cabin noise. I'm not compraing to luxury car. General cars wont give u such a noise as new vios is general known as poor in sound insulation. I went Toyota few times n they just act like they duno. So i ask them for a ride n listen on it. They say it is tyre noise (also so called external noise) penetrate into the cabin n tis model is liddat. So my next qs will be why old vios dun have such a noise. Toyota mechanic just smile n say nothing. By the way I'm preparing to spend like rm1-2k for sound proofing which can truly reduce the cabin noise to the level same as old vios but not mercedes/lexus/bentley which we know is impossible. Haha!  |

QUOTE(travis_ckf @ Nov 19 2009, 11:29 AM) Trust me, for ppl like u, sell ur car. Oh... selling my car now will cause a loss of rm15-20k as it is only 1 n half year old vios. But i think dynamat on firewall will be useful but must wait until warranty period over. Actually my case is just like some ppl demand for better tyre which have better grip on dry n wet condition. Some ppl may complaining tat their tyres are not performing as wat they wan. Dun tell me tat the only solution is to sell their car as they may choose the right tyres n my solution will be choosing the right place to sound proof.Sorry for my useless advise but i dont think even spending 10k to sound proofing a vios is worth it.

QUOTE(travis_ckf @ Nov 19 2009, 12:28 PM) My bad, i havent though of tyres as well. Yes bro... Changed to Michelin PP2 but still noisy. So i think to prepare a budget of rm1-2k to sound proof. If really cant solve the only solution is like wat u said. Sell it. Haha!Going for comfort and quiet tyres is also another way to reduce noise. Alot ppl recommend either michelin pp2 and goodyear F1 Asymmetric. Best in comfort, less noisy as grippy as well. This post has been edited by enson1985: Nov 19 2009, 12:40 PM Attached thumbnail(s)
