What kind of sound deadening should I use on my Honda HRV?
Dynamat tends to be the most commonly used sound deadening material. It will add weight to your car, which will possibly reduce MPGs. The noise is likely wind noise – I don’t find too much noise from the road or tires, but I can definitely hear a lot of noise from the windshield.
Which is louder a Honda HRV or a Honda Fit?
On the decibel scale, the smallest audible sound (near total silence) is 0 dB. A sound 10 times more powerful is 10 dB. A sound 100 times more powerful than near total silence is 20 dB. A sound 1,000 times more powerful than near total silence is 30 dB. So, comparing the Fit to the HRV, generally runs about 6db higher. That means it is 60% louder.
What kind of car makes a lot of noise?
I occasionally get to drive my neighbor’s 2016 Fit and that car sounds quite loud to me. A 121 hp Fit engine is power-challenged often, and much less weight to the doors, and thinner door seals makes that car sound pretty strained and whiny at the top of its revs.
Why does my Honda CRV make a humming noise?
Our 2018 CRV sometimes makes a sound that reminds me of and aquarium pump running. First time I noticed it I was late at night when I was taking the garbage out. I did a bit of research at that time and concluded it had something to do with part of the emissions system purging or recycling.
