Autofoam = continental car?

I would like to get an example which continental car come with autofoam in default? I doubt u can get one.

Done it before, less airborne noise but the ride is harsh in badly pave road, the impact transmit from the suspension to the whole body through the harden filled foam instead of dissipate half way in the hollow pillar without foam. Again u may say this is subjective, give and take.

But one dangerous thing you may not know for autofoam the side sill (hollow pillar bottom of the door) is you are potentially bloking the water drainage system that seep in from the chassis and flooded your cabin. I'm the victim of this issue previously and luckily discovered just after few days where only driver side carpet is flooded. Mine one not done at KL Auto but i doubt they will ever tell you the truth. They are not car designer and they won't be able to know how the drainage system is designed for every car. Don't scold me if you have no issue with yours because you may just lucky enough.

Recently just went back from soundproofing shop and they told me there are few Merz/BMW who done the autofoam at KL Auto water flooded under the carpet. So yiu still believe my case is coincidence? Your choice, don't say i'm not warn you.
