My tC is so loud when i'm driving. I am usually around 80-85 mph and the noise from the engine and the road is just loud. It ruins the music listening experience. Anyone else feel the same?

 

forget about the music., open the sunroof and the windows and rock on

 

 

I believe it's the tires, I'm pretty sure it's bigger than your previous car's. This is 17", dunno if it matters, but i think i heard that the bigger they are, the louder it is. I realized that noise the first day i got it. Don't worry, just put it into FEEL mode and crank it up, it'll be alrite, that's what i do.

 

My MR2 is loud (mid engine, turbo, loud exhaust, etc) hahaha... this car is very quiet even at 80. Also if you feel it is loud, then turn up the radio or dynamat the car.

I don't think my TC is loud at all!

 

seriously...i don't know what the hell your talking about, the tC is extremely quiet. Especialy for a vehicle thats considered a sports coupe.

 

people.... stop complaining! you don't it because its noisy? then dont ride it... you dont like the car? then just sell it...

how simple is that?

 

The engine runs at about 4k rpm at those speeds (I run those speeds every day on my commute, I know what I'm talking about here) and the only minor complaint I have is some wind noise from the sunroof, but that's just because the wind is whistling between the window panes on the roof. No big deal.

As far as the road noise, some dynomating would help, but when you run with 17 inch rims your tires are low profile and will produce more noise. You could find a 15 inch rim and put it on, that would help. But then again, now you have 15" rims

 

Damn.... car needs a sixth gear.

 

you sir are a whiny _____. just like all the other _____es thank complain about the most redundant ____ i have ever heard.

p.s it really is about time someone called these morons out and call them for what they are

 

my headlights seem to be really bright. Should I sell it?

 

no, don't sell it. just replace the stock headlamp fluid with low intensity headlamp fluid. you can get it at kragens.

 

hahaha!!! This thread is cracking me up. I came on here to specifically see what else people are complaining about. Well, I found it.

I dont think the post was asking for your oppinion of me. I think the point was to see what others thought about the noise level of the vehicle, which is something that all cars are judged by because some people care. If my only concern about the car is its noise level (which is a matter of taste), I am definitely not a whiny b*tch.

 

It's a bit loud at times...depending on the road surface...but it's pretty quiet for 17k.

Happy motoring :D

 

agreed

 

if its too loud than you should sell it and walk everywhere

 

If you want loud take a drive in my Elantra that will give you a headache

I have an exhaust on my tC and it still seems pretty quiet even at 100+

 

It made that way so you don't hear the rattles or creaks...

 

If you don't mind me asking. What car are you comparing the road noise to? How long have you own the tC? Have you ever driven a car with low profile tires before?
