How to properly soundproof Priora doors

September 01, 2015 Lada.Online 124 475 7

What are Lada cars famous for? First of all, they are practical, economical and inexpensive to maintain. They are also known for their poor sound insulation. Noise, hum, howl, rattling and squeaks are familiar, integral additions. However, you can make the car a little more comfortable if you install additional sound insulation on the doors.

Lada cars (Granta, Priora, Kalina, Largus, Niva 4x4, Vesta or XRAY) have similar instructions for installing noise vibration insulation (SHVI). Features may only occur when removing/installing door trims:

For Lada Granta/Kalina 2.
For Lada Priora.
For Lada Largus.
For Lada Vesta.
For Lada XRAY.

Why soundproof doors? This modification will allow:

Eliminate rattles and squeaks
Reduce road noise
Improve the sound of acoustics
Change the sound of doors closing for the better

General action plan:

Install a vibration isolator (visomat, vibroplast, BiMast) on the outside of the door (we will ensure good vibration damping of the surface)
Close the technical openings of the door using a vibration isolator.
Place noise insulation (bitoplast, isotone, accent)/thermal insulation (splen) directly on the plastic door trim.

It is not recommended to install sound insulation and thermal insulation inside the door, because these materials only work with 100% surface coverage. The doors have slots for glass and drain holes, so sound insulators/heat insulators will be inside the door in an aggressive environment and may lose their properties.

Hood and engine

Soundproofing the engine compartment of the Lada Priora
- the front instrument panel is removed;

— we also remove the factory insulation;

— use a photograph to record the position of all wires and bearings;

— wash the surface, clean it with sandpaper, treat it with a solvent;

— heat the first layer of the vibration isolator to a sticky state and fix it;

- second layer - splen, bitoplast;

— insulate the wires with anti-squeak;

- Reassemble the panel in reverse order.

Sound insulation of the hood

In addition to the standard set of materials and tools, you will need factory insulation with clamps. Clean the surface, treat with solvent, and dry. The first vibration-isolating layer, preheated. Roll it out with a roller, then lay the splen. The next layer is standard insulation.

Lada Priora is not a good Shumka. This is easy to fix on your own. The procedure will not take much time and money - if you do it yourself, it will take a couple of weeks and 5 thousand materials. If you do it in a hotel, the price will be from 25,000 rubles.

Sound insulation of Priora doors

Soundproofing of Priora doors is done in many cases only for the following reason: this car is domestically assembled, which a priori affects the silence of the cabin and silent driving at speed. Knowing how to soundproof doors on a Priora, you can also improve the situation with acoustic systems with your own hands, which will sound completely different after the operation.

The final stage of sound insulation

Owners of Lada Priora and other models of domestic vehicles often ignore this stage. In AvtoVAZ cars, window lifters often get stuck and break. To repair them, you will need to completely remove the installed sound insulation.

Mechanics recommend that before upgrading or modifying the sound absorption system, you need to contact the studio to diagnose and fix problems that cause extraneous sounds.

Result

Is it worth soundproofing the doors? According to the results of a survey among VKontakte users, about 70% of car enthusiasts noticed a positive effect. About 16% saw little benefit from the intervention, and 14% noticed no difference at all.

The same ratio of votes can be seen in the poll on the website Lada2111.rf.

According to the results of popular research, the effect of soundproofing doors will reduce wheel noise by only 1-2 dB (depending on the car). The only noticeable difference will be in the sound of the acoustics.

To reduce the noise level in the cabin by 2-4 dB (a difference of 1 dB is barely noticeable or not noticeable at all), it is necessary to take a comprehensive approach to car sound insulation, work on all parts of the body (floor, doors, roof, trunk, etc.). ), wheel arches and fender liners. It would also be useful to install additional door seals on LADA cars (instructions for XRAY, Vesta, Granta/Kalina/Priora, Largus and Lada 4x4).

Full sound insulation Priora in Moscow - cost

How much does it cost to install complete noise protection for the VAZ Lada Priora hatchback in our studio in Moscow, using the best materials? To achieve the effect, we offer three configuration options for soundproofing the vase. The price of the service depends on the preferred option. Tariffs vary depending on the quality of materials and the amount of work performed on the vase. It is distinguished by the use of denser materials and a more powerful effect. Unlike the most expensive “platinum” option, its cost does not include additional sound insulation of the internal arches, doors, door trim, rear parcel shelf, floor, and trunk of the Lada Priora. Therefore, the latter tariff is more expensive in cost, at least 6 thousand rubles. “Silver” differs from Golda in that the cost of the service does not include car fender liners and outer wheel arches.

Task: installing sound insulation for a Lada Priora car in the “Gold” configuration

The first thing we decided to do for complete sound insulation was to cover the roof of the VAZ car. We carefully remove all unnecessary elements from the roof, including the sheathing on the roof of the vase. Now you can make the first layer of sound insulation on the car ceiling. We install a high-quality damper from SGM Alumast Alfa to neutralize vibration on the vase roof. How much work does this cost us? You yourself can guess by the appearance of the roof in the photo and the effect achieved. The roof of the Lada Priora is not only protected from vibrations, but has also become stiffer. The use of vibration on the roof significantly reduces the overall sound background in a hatchback car. Then you need to make another layer on the roof. For this purpose we use a thick layer of Violon WELL sound insulator. It eliminates unwanted sounds. After installing it, it is almost impossible to push through the roof of the car, and raindrops will definitely not cause any discomfort to anyone. After assembling the upper part of the interior and hatchback of the car, all we have to do is take on the lower part to achieve a similar effect.

Vibration insulation of the floor, trunk and rear arches of the Lada Priora photo

Now we disassemble, thoroughly clean and degrease all surfaces on the floor in the cabin, after which we install noise and vibration insulation on the floor, trunk and arches. How many layers will be required for this installation? This tariff involves installing Shumka on the floor and arches in the cabin in two layers. At the first level, we lay the material on the floor of the Lada Priora hatchback that we have been working with for a long time and successfully. The properties of Alumast Alfa are worth talking about separately. It is plastic and fits tightly to the floor of the car hatchback. That's why we roll it everywhere, even in the most problematic places on the car floor. On top of it we install another layer of insulation. The most suitable material for this purpose, Bibiton, is laid on top of the vibration on the floor. It is worth saying about it that it is a special foam rubber impregnated with polymers and mastic. On the mounting side it has silicone protection. It absorbs as much airborne noise penetrating through the arches and floor of the car as possible. It has high anti-corrosion characteristics, so the car is now protected from rust. This equipment does not require additional sound insulation inside the interior and hatchback of the Lada Priora. The next step will be to cover the arches and trunk of the Lada Priora. Carefully disassemble the lower part of the hatchback car to get to the arches. Then we wipe and degrease the surfaces of the arches. To dampen the arch, we use the same Alyumast, which does not put extra weight on the trunk and arches of the car. We cover the arches and trunk with another layer of Shumka, for which we use an adhesive-based vialon. The arches and trunk should be well worked on to make the interior of the vase almost silent. For the arches here we did everything we could, and we also covered the niche for the spare tire with Uniton. Now the arches and trunk are completely protected from fungus. And visually, as can be seen in the photo, the arches are in harmony with the trunk. We cover the trunk lid of the vase in the same way as the hood. How the materials are cut can also be seen in the photo.

Work order

In Lada Priora, sound insulation is performed in the following order:

To perform soundproofing of the interior, it will be necessary to remove all the front seats, as well as the center console, remove the steering wheel and dashboard

Interior with the above items removed

As soon as all the disturbing elements are removed from the interior, we remove the carpet and remove all the factory sound insulation of the engine shield, located on the interior side, photo above
Then we apply Bimast Bomb to the engine shield in the cabin.
Accent or Splen of your choice can be applied over this to absorb sound waves from the engine, stereo speakers and other sources.

Engine shield treated with vibration absorber from the interior

We remind you that before applying the vibration-absorbing material, the entire surface is thoroughly wiped from dust, dirt and preservation, then thoroughly degreased with a solvent or alcohol

Before installing the material in place, it is cut out, then the carefully prepared pieces are heated with a hairdryer, only after that they are applied to the surface
And after applying the material to the desired surface, it is rolled with a roller (roller) from the center of the attached part to the edges in order to expel all the air, and our material is more tightly attached to the surface
Inside the engine compartment, soundproofing material is glued to the hood, in addition, to the front shield, all planes that do not have stiffeners, as well as in places that can be glued without removing the engine and dismantling its components
We cover the motor shield on the engine side with insulation from the top to the point where the shield connects to the floor of the car, in this case we use the material Bimast Bomb or Bimast Super;
The hood cover is insulated with bimast, and on top there is splen for thermal insulation
After the soundproofing materials have been applied, we put all the removed parts back in their places, and the work can be considered complete
Additionally, you can watch the training video

After such a small modification, the noise level inside the car is noticeably reduced, and the ride becomes much more pleasant and much more comfortable. And when all the work is done yourself, this means money saved for more pressing purposes, plus you will be absolutely sure of the quality of sound insulation of your favorite car.

The standard sound insulation of the Priora car leaves much to be desired. Car enthusiasts strive to correct this deficiency with their own hands, since extraneous sounds irritate and distract the Lada Priora while driving. They make noise on the doors, floor, arches, ceiling, engine compartment, hood, trunk, panels, dashboard - after this the Priora becomes a quiet car. The source of extraneous sounds can be a malfunction of the engine, its components, malfunction of suspension parts, brake system, steering, etc. Unpleasant sounds occur when driving on gravel roads due to vehicles passing by, especially heavy vehicles. To get rid of unpleasant sensations, it is necessary to modify the standard sound insulation. You can do this yourself. Depending on the body type: hatchback, sedan, or station wagon, the Shumka technology is slightly different. Read the article to the end and we will tell you how to do it correctly!

It is necessary to purchase materials and acquire tools in advance.

Materials

Vibration insulation, sealant. Special material that needs to be heated before use.

Sound Absorber

Sound Wave Display: Displays sound waves in the original direction.

Anti-creak

Used to eliminate squeaks that occur between body elements, trim, suspension parts, etc.

It is better to start the process of finalizing the standard sound absorption system of the Priors with simple elements - the hood, for example.

The set for Priora to eliminate unnecessary sounds depends on the amount of work. To complete all three steps you need:

vibration isolation 3-4 sheets;
splen 6-7 sheets;
bitoplast about 3 liters;
modelin 2-3 liters.

Soundproofing Priora is performed in the following order:

after all interfering elements of the interior have been dismantled, the carpet is removed and all factory sound insulation of the engine panel on the interior side is removed;
Bimast Bomb is applied to the engine shield from the passenger compartment, and Splen 3004 can be additionally applied on top of it for additional thermal insulation and absorption of sound waves from stereo system speakers and other sources;

before applying the noise-vibration-absorbing material, the surface must be thoroughly wiped from dirt and dust, and then thoroughly degreased with a solvent or anti-silicone;
before installation in place, the material is cut out, then the prepared pieces are well heated with a construction hairdryer, after which they are applied to the surface to be insulated;
after applying the material to the surface with a rolling roller, all air is expelled from the center of the part to the edges, and the material is carefully rolled to the installation surface;
in the engine compartment, sound-proofing material is applied to the hood, as well as to the front shield on all planes that do not have stiffeners, and in places that do not require removal of the engine and major dismantling of its components;

on the engine side, the motor shield is insulated from above to the point where it connects to the floor of the car; the material used in this case is also Bimast Bomb or Bimast Super;

the engine compartment cover is insulated with Splen 3008;
After applying soundproofing materials, all dismantled parts are installed back in their place, and the work can be considered completed.

So, after this small modification, the noise level inside the car will significantly decrease, and the ride will become much more pleasant and comfortable. And since all the work will be done by yourself, you will also save money on the work of a master, being completely confident in the quality of the sound insulation of your own car.

Tuning Priora

Cars are assembled on an assembly line. And this method of production has not changed for a hundred years. Thanks to continuous assembly technology, car production reaches very large volumes. The number runs into tens of thousands per year. Domestic enterprises differ little from foreign ones in their equipment and organization of production. Basic models are supplied to all regions of the country. Since operating conditions vary markedly, owners have to bring the car up to condition on their own.

Sound insulation of the hood

At the factory, the hood on the Priora is installed without a soundproofing gasket. When operating the car in urban conditions, on asphalt roads, this does not have a significant impact on the comfort in the cabin. It's another matter when you have to drive on gravel and sandy surfaces.

To reduce the noise level, you need to purchase vibration material and a heat insulator.

First you need to remove the hood and clean its inner surface from dirt and grime. Then the vibrating material is cut to size. Its bitumen base is heated with a hairdryer and glued to the places between the stiffeners. The second layer is glued to the entire inner surface of the heat insulator. Everything takes three to four hours. As a result, the audible noise from the engine is reduced. The motor retains heat longer in winter.

Installing a tow bar

The towbar is most often installed on a station wagon. In order to increase the volume of cargo transported in one trip, you need to use a trailer. Transportation is often carried out along country roads. The attachment of the trailer to the car must be strong and convenient. This is ensured by a special towing device. It must be purchased at the store. At the same time, carefully check the package contents of the product. The kit must include reinforcing plates.

Installation of the device is easy to do yourself. According to the installation dimensions, holes are drilled in the bottom of the body for the diameter of the mounting bolt. These holes must be treated with anti-corrosion lubricant.

The device is then secured into place. At the final stage you need to connect to the power supply system. To do this you will have to remove the rear bumper. When connecting, the main thing is not to mix up the wires.

Acoustic podiums

The comfort of the car is also determined by the sound quality of the music in the cabin. Some experts believe that you shouldn't pay much attention to this. At the same time, lovers of modern melodies and rhythms are primarily concerned with improving the acoustic system.

The procedure is quite complicated. First you need to purchase speakers of suitable power. Then prepare the material - plywood, polyurethane foam, epoxy resin. When calculating and installing speakers, it must be taken into account that they should not be installed close to the feet of passengers. There is a high probability of their damage.

How to make a banner with your own hands

There is no need to give the car to the service center technicians. Reupholstery is not complete without:

fabrics;
glue;
set of screwdrivers;
degreaser;
fine-grained abrasive;
hard sponge;
rollers for leveling the surface;
masking tape;
hairdryer (preferably a construction hairdryer, with the ability to adjust the temperature).

To hide the fasteners of decorative elements, you will have to break out the plugs. So buy them in advance.

Step-by-step instruction

A complete reupholstery consists of ten stages.

Dismantling.
Removing the old coating and cleaning the base with a hard sponge.
Removing old adhesive residues with a degreaser.
Sanding the frame with abrasive sandpaper.
Applying a strip of adhesive to the central part. The length of the strip is up to ten centimeters.
Smoothing the center of the fabric with a roller.
Apply similar stripes on the left and right sides at a distance of 10-15 centimeters from each other.
Stretching and smoothing the fabric.
After completing the application of the fabric, re-align with a roller.
Folding and gluing the edges of the fabric. The rest must be trimmed.

The repair is considered complete after reinstallation along with lighting and decorative elements. The naked eye will see how well the interior will be transformed.

Basic mistakes

The main mistake is using Moment glue instead of the compositions indicated earlier. In summer, the car gets very hot, which is why the glue will not be able to hold the fabric on the frame.

You need to start from the center. If you start re-upholstering from the edges, it will be difficult for the owner to align the fabric in places with sharp transitions.

Lada Priora Hatchback ☁️White smoke › Logbook › 17. Additional door seals

When driving more than 70-80 km/h. the wind begins to blow from all the cracks, a roar from the road is heard, passengers look around trying to find an open door, the driver-owner accordingly has an unpleasant feeling for his car, it’s all due to the “wild” gaps in the doors and not only that are present on a car with the plant itself. Many people solve this problem by gluing various seals on the doors, hood, sills, etc. I went the same way:

Consumed: -Z-shaped seal 2.5 m. Could not be found in stores, so I had to order from AliExpress. Price: 350₽ 3 m. -D-shaped seal about 3 meters. As for this sealant, they are available in any hardware store. 120₽ m. -Gasoline/Galoshes 50 gr. As a surface degreaser I use only this or industrial alcohol, since they are less dangerous for paintwork.

The noise and air blowing into the cabin has decreased by about 60%, then I also plan to stick a D-shaped seal around the entire perimeter of the doors or use a seal from some foreign car (to be continued in the same post), who will advise?

Sound insulation of LADA Priora doors

Soundproofing or soundproofing of the VAZ 2170 is often done for one simple reason: since the car is Russian-assembled, it is not famous for its quiet interior and silent ride. In addition, one of the main sources of noise is the noise from the wheels when driving, so the issue of sound insulation of Priora doors is currently the most pressing. The technological process of sound insulation is almost the same regardless of the make and type of car. But each individual case has its own subtleties and nuances.

Soundproofing Priora doors begins, first of all, with removing the upholstery material from the doors. Under the upholstery there is standard sound insulation, which must be carefully removed. After this, you should thoroughly wipe the metal door frame, for example, with White Spirit, degreasing and cleaning the surface. It is worth noting that the anticorrosive agent located at the bottom of the doors must under no circumstances be removed!

The most optimal and simplest option for installing sound insulation is considered to be the option in which sound insulation is made using layers. Soundproofing Priora doors with your own hands of this type will take you no more than 10 hours of work. You will also need about 7 sheets of vibration-absorbing material, 4 sheets of Splen, 3 sheets of bitoplast and the same amount of modelin.

The first layer of sound insulation of Priora front doors is the installation of vibration-proofing material inside them:

First, you need to cut out several sheets of suitable shape and size from the vibrating material (the larger the sheets, the better).
Next, using a technical hair dryer, you need to heat the bitumen side of the resulting sheets.
Then heated pieces of vibration insulation should be glued to the inside of each door and rolled out with a hard iron or plastic roller over its entire area.
Then the next sheet is taken and overlapped over the first one according to the algorithm described above.

The coverage of vibration-proofing material on the inside of the doors depends on the material itself, so its percentage (percentage of coverage) can vary from 55 to 100%.

The next layer of sound insulation for Priora doors means sticking sound-absorbing and heat-insulating materials onto the vibration-proofing layer. Experts recommend using materials such as Splen or Accent at this stage. They have a self-adhesive base, so their installation does not require any specific skills or a lot of time. In this case, the entire surface (100%) of the inside of the doors is covered.

A third layer of sound insulation can be installed upon request. The essence of this layer is to cover all technological holes in the doors with vibration-isolating material or the like. If you make a third soundproofing layer, then in case of repair of the window regulators it will need to be dismantled. As practice shows, sound insulation of doors made in three layers is considered the most effective.

Discomfort inside the car when driving also occurs due to squeaks. Therefore, an equally important step in soundproofing doors is soundproofing the door skins. To do this, the upholstery material is first made heavier with vibration material, so it will vibrate less and make fewer squeaks. And then bitoplast (sound-absorbing material) or modelin is glued on top of the vibration material in the places of their contact.

The rear doors of the Priora are soundproofed in the same way. Then the door is assembled in the opposite sequence. It is recommended to use new clips for door trim.

It is worth paying attention to the fact that high-quality sound insulation implies a set of measures that are aimed not only at eliminating external noise from the wind, wheels and road, but also at minimizing crickets and squeaks inside the car dealership. Only in this case will the driver be able to achieve absolute silence and comfort when moving in the car.

The Lada Priora does not have standard vibration insulation in the hood, because of this it is necessary to purchase noise and vibration insulating materials in advance (1.5 sheets of heat insulator, 2 sheets of sound absorber and 2 sheets of vibration material). Don’t forget about the clips that are useful for installing these materials. In addition, you will need:

Hard iron or plastic plastic;
Technical hair dryer;
Construction scissors.

And the room in which the work will be done must be warm and well lit.

Before directly installing the sound insulation, the inside of the hood should be thoroughly wiped, for example, with White Spirit, degreasing and cleaning the surface from dust and excess debris. After the working area has completely dried, you can begin soundproofing.

The most optimal and simplest option for installing sound insulation is considered to be the option in which sound insulation is made using layers. To soundproof this part of the car, the work will take place in two stages. And in terms of time, soundproofing a Priora with your own hands will take no more than 3 hours.

Removal

When you have purchased the required number of seals, you can begin to work.

Article on the topic: Do-it-yourself noise insulation of VAZ 2110 (Video)

The first step is to remove the old rubber elements, after which the installation of new parts begins.

Let's tell you more about the dismantling procedure.

Remove the plastic trim panels installed on your vehicle's door sills. To do this you will need a thick screwdriver. Remove carefully, being careful not to damage the plastic caps. But it’s better to buy new ones in advance if you can’t carefully dismantle the threshold.
Now remove the old pieces of rubber from the seats. Simply tear off the sections that are torn off by hand.
Remaining rubber can be cleaned off with any available tool. Only be careful with sharp objects so as not to damage the metal and paint layer.
Very small residues and traces of glue are removed using solvents. Make sure that the solvent you choose will not damage your paintwork.
Go over the doorway with a vacuum cleaner, remove all dust and dirt. Take special care to clean the bottom part. If wet cleaning was used, wait until everything is thoroughly dry.

Upcoming work

Installation

This process cannot be called complicated. You are not required to have any special training or extensive experience. Although you should at least be able to handle glue.

Working with the back door

Each stage is performed consistently and carefully to achieve the desired result and create comfort inside the cabin.

Even if you have already measured the required length of the seals for your doors, we advise you to do it again. Anything can happen.
Cut the required length, plus leave a couple of centimeters of reserve. Although if we are talking about a ready-made set of rubber bands, you won’t have to cut or leave anything. Skip the first two points.
Insert a tube made of silicone or polymer inside the sealing tape. They are sold everywhere, so there should be no problems finding them.
The length of the tube must match the length of the rubber. This tube will serve to create the necessary elasticity and allow the elastic to press more tightly to the door. This way, ventilation gaps will not appear, and the cabin will become much quieter.
A shaped side rubber seal is glued to the bottom.
If the tape is solid, you can start putting it on from either side, as is more convenient for you.
If it is a measuring rubber band, then start from a point between the door overhangs, or 30 centimeters from the bottom of the threshold. Moving up or down is a personal choice for each master. There is no difference here.
Push the figured profile all the way down. To do this you will need a rubber or wooden hammer. He's a mallet.
When the seal is installed around the entire perimeter, an extra piece will be revealed. Cut the tube straight and end-to-end, and make the elastic itself seem slightly deformed. It's like you tore it off by hand. This will avoid the unpleasant phenomenon of siphoning through the joint.
Replace the pistons; if some were damaged during removal, replace them with new, intact ones.
Replace the plastic cladding removed from the threshold.
The second contour of the seal is glued along the edges carefully, but as tightly as possible, after which time is given for the glue to dry completely.

Almost immediately you will feel the difference between the old and new seal. This is a useful exercise that allows you to get rid of unpleasant sounds, knocking, whistling and cold air flowing directly onto your feet.

Sound insulation of Priora doors

The driver should feel comfortable and comfortable during the trip. This makes the trip safer. The domestic auto industry does not yet have a level of quality at which there is no need to make any modifications to the manufactured products. For example, the sound insulation of the Lada's interior needs to be improved. It makes sense to improve the acoustics in your car immediately after purchasing it.

Improving comfort in the car

Additional soundproofing of the cabin will add comfort

Interior noise insulation is usually done by specialists who work at service stations. However, due to the fact that such work is not particularly difficult, it is often carried out by the car owner himself in his own garage. Lada Priora is significantly different in terms of comfort from its predecessors. For example, the VAZ 2110 and VAZ 21099 models, which have significant noise in the cabin while driving. The Lada Priora has much less noise, but is still sufficient to get on the nerves of the passengers in the cabin. The main source of noise is metal vibration. This sound comes into the car interior from the doors.

Vibration material is installed in the Priora as sound insulation. It is not expensive and absorbs sound well. Sound insulation of the doors relieves the driver of additional sound pollution. This allows him to be more attentive and control the vehicle better. Good quality sound insulation allows the driver to get less tired during the journey, as a result of which he can cover long distances.

When soundproofing the interior is done, vibration material is also installed on the inner surface of the hood and trunk. This absorbs vibration from the sheet metal. The metal sheets from which the hood and trunk of the Lada Priora are made have a large area.

The larger the area of the body part, the greater the vibration that occurs on it during movement.

However, first of all, attention should be paid to noise reduction of the Priora doors, because they are the main source of noise in the cabin

Do-it-yourself noise insulation of Priora

Priora door handles have a number of disadvantages, for example, they quickly break and rattle. Both ailments are a consequence of too much play, which is recommended to be eliminated.

Soundproofing VAZ 2110

The rear shelf of Priora, Kalina and Granta is famous for its crickets, they are especially noticeable on hatchbacks and station wagons. According to statistics, 70% of car owners, after purchasing a domestic car, almost immediately soundproof the rear of the car. Do you know what to do if a shelf creaks?

The Priora's glove compartment is made of inexpensive plastic, which is not covered with anything inside. Therefore, things that are in it can cause rattling while driving. You can get rid of extraneous noise by soundproofing the glove compartment.

The Lada Priora ceiling initially does not have any sound insulation, except for the upholstery. Sound insulation of the Priora roof, like the hood, does not cause any difficulties, so it is recommended that a “newbie” start with it.

After the car was released, many owners began to notice that the Priora gearbox lever began to rattle in the same way as on previous VAZ 2108-2010 cars. It's all about the same type of design of the gearbox control drive. We'll tell you how to remove vibrations in the VAZ 2170 gearbox handle.

The Priora's hood is the part of the car with which it is recommended that a beginner begin soundproofing. It will be easy to work with a simple, even shape of small sizes. Let's consider what is needed to soundproof the hood of a VAZ 2170.

If sound insulation of the trunk of a VAZ 2170 (sedan) is not so important, then for a hatchback and station wagon everything is different

Let's figure out what to pay attention to when installing trunk soundproofing

To make the car more comfortable, they try to reduce noise coming from outside as much as possible. Sound insulation behind the Priora panel will reduce engine noise in the cabin, but doing it will require a lot of effort and patience. First things first:

Soundproofing a car consists of a number of measures that are aimed at different elements of the interior. Floor soundproofing is considered one of the most significant, the effect of which is immediately noticeable. Let's consider how difficult it is to soundproof the floor of a VAZ 2170 yourself.

How does a Russian car differ from a foreign car? The main difference is the presence of crickets, creaks and rattles in it. The reason is simple - the low quality of plastic in the cabin, as well as the build quality. This time we are trying to soundproof the VAZ 2170 panel.

Noise insulation (sound insulation) of the VAZ 2170 is popular for one reason, because it is a Russian car, and they have never been famous for a quiet interior. It has been proven that the main source of noise is noise from wheels and the road, so we are studying the issue of noise insulation of Lada Priora doors in more detail.

The sound insulation of foreign-made cars has always been different from domestic ones, and one of the reasons for this is the competent design of the body and the successful location of door seals. Let's figure out where and how you can install additional seals on the Priora.
