Cabin Noise

Cabin Noise

Postby jdt.solara » Sun Feb 17, 2008 4:18 am

Everything is peachy until I get about 90 or more and then the cabin just gets really loud because of the wind, no performance problems or anything, I just want to know if there is a way that I can make it quieter.

Is it wind noise from the top of the cabin or road noise from the floor? Does it sound like its comes from the front side windows? Need more information please.

I have the same problem on my driver side. When I hit high speeds I hear wind noise coming from the area around my driver side mirrior. Its not a big problem, but I would like to get it fixed.

Before anything else clean the rubber around your windows and doors. After that get some silicone spray and put a towel behind the rubber and spray with the silicone spray. It does wonders. If the rubber is dirty and/or stiff it will let in air noise. Spraying really helps. I do it all the time.

Yeah, it is wind around the windows and cabin, not comming from the street or tires. I don't wanna slow down.

Thick custom glass will do the trick.
