Quieter ride - Door soundproofing

[beemerback]

Soundproofed the doors today. RESULT: A quieter ride, doors sounded more solid when finger-knocked from the outside but darn....the aircon blower now seem to be noisy as a result of better insulation. Next: How to "silence" the blower without switching it off?Before:

After:

Increase your radio volume to silence the aircon blower, haha....

 

[Herbert]

Noise is from the blower fan motor bearings and you can just replace the motor at about RM800.

The motor dearer than the insulation itself.....

For best results, the roof and the floorboard should be included....

Will wanna do front doors, floor and as far up to the firewall that they can push. Maybe something for the wheel arches. Does the roof let in that much wind noise? Other than when it rains la ... but best of all change to non run flats!
