sound

Hi guys, I have a tiny 15" sub and two amps to add to my car (might downgrade to 12" sub later - borrowed off a friend to see how it goes) - but where do you all run your wires to your setup? Is there a nice easy way of doing it - do you have any tips or tricks? Cheers, Alix

I recently went on a course with work and got into a discussion with the technical trainer on Diesel tuning as he noticed when i turned up in my Cupra TDI. I had also noticed as I arrived there was a 2.0l Golf TDI parked in the car park which turned out to be his. Anyway getting to the point...

Hi everybody! Just fitted the Bailey DV30 and I have noticed it have a silent "wooosh" sound when lifting the throttle...only when you give it some peanuts...but it is"louder" than the stock bosch DV. Is that normal? It does not bother me, I'm just curious whether the sound should be there...

hi, I drive a Leon 1.6 SE When I start off in first gear and put my foot on the accelerator there is a whistling sound. The sound is only heard when the vehicle is slow and then disappears. This happens in 2nd too for example if I take off from a junction in 2nd gear. But at higher speeds...

from a few google searches i am thinking that the 2 parts are damping (to stop bare metal from vibrating) and sound proofing (to stop noise getting into the cabin) can people recommend what products to use for the sound proofing (damplifier, brax, sheets of sponge, etc) and where they put it...

Hey folks, Im getting a 06 Cupra next week, but I just wondered; Is the standard HU rubbish? With my MK3 I used the original head unit, but decided to wire in some components up front and a sub and amp in the rear. It was only half decent Pioneer stuff, think it cost about £120 all...

hiya, just wondered if anyone else has noticed an electrical sound when opening the door after the car has been unlocked? i hear it as soon as i open the door before i have even got in to put the key in the ignition. it sounds like something electrical is moving or switching but nothing has...

Squeaking sound from mirror in Cupra TFSI Over the last few days I am hearing an ennoying sound when automatically folding the passenger's side mirror towards the end of its turn ...:shrug: It is quite different than before and certainly not compared to the smouth sound that the other (driver's...

Dear All, i'm a newbie to this forum so please be gentle. I am the very proud owner of a 2000 Seat Leon 1.8T in silver with Black/blue check interior. The car is great apart from one niggling little problem. There is no sound from the stereo, I have power to the unit and it tells me...

Let's share some sound/video clips of what you're modified exhausts sound like. [B)] I'll start with mine: stock diameter exhaust, with custom made decat pipe and straight-through pipe ressonator back box fitted. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxMolW7BXRg

Help Just popped out to the shops and lunchtime and as I pulled back into my drive there was a serious clunking sound coming from underneath my Leon. Just been back out in and it its seems to have settled down, bar the seat belt adjuster rattling like nothing. All I can think is I live...

Sometimes, mainly in the mornings, and always when the ignition is at the 1st position (ie electrics on) there's a ticking noise coming from the glovebox. As it doesn't seem to happen in the evenings on the way home from work, I've assumed that it's something temperature related. It's done...

I'm thinking of changing my LC - and one of the possibilities for my next car is a BMW 525d. However, one of the things that I'm thinking about is the noise from the exhaust. I love the "sporty note" that my car gives, and don't really want to give that up. Obviously the sound from the...

Hello everyone, i was having a look around my car yesterday and i noticed it seemed to be making a lot of noise from the top of the engine around the middle. it sounds like clicking a bit like the sound a pen makes when u push the button on top but a lot faster. is this what it is meant to...
