Previously, I did sound proofing on an Audi A6C6-doors, floor, arches, trunk, but I was not happy with the result, although the noise level decreased, but it was not worth it. Therefore, on the Audi A6C7, I decided to do only with noise insulation of the doors, or rather vibration isolation.
First of all, you will need to remove the door panel, for this you need a tool: Torx T25, a clip puller, to remove the low-frequency speaker trim, you also need a key or an end head for 8
The material used for sound insulation of doors:
STP GOLD 2.3 New 75x47 6 sheets of 295 rubles
As a result, after a couple of days of trips, there is a feeling that the cabin has become quieter, but the application for measuring the noise level shows that the noise has decreased by 0.1-0.6 dB (at a speed of 100 km/h), the only thing that has undoubtedly become better is closing and opening the doors, since a weight of +2 kg has been added to each door
