HOW QUIET CAN WE GET OUR TESLA? | SOUND DAMPENING TEST 

Thank you for keeping it 💯 percent real! I love your content! 🤙

Thank you for keeping it real, too many fake sponsored vids that hype these up...and ppl waste their money. I respect you did this.

Thanks for making this video so we won't make the same mistakes

I applaud your effort. Awesome video and editing. And admirable work going that far in pulling up all the carpet and removing all those panels. I could see and hear your sadness at the end. I know that feeling of going in expecting something and putting in all that time and effort and ultimately getting no results. But I appreciate your honesty when you could easily lie and say there was an improvement to get people to go buy a product through an affiliate link. A few thoughts: 1. Those phone app decibel meters are notoriously unreliable - at least in absolute terms - due to the limitations of the hardware, though I'd like to think it would still show a relative change if there was one. Granted, your subjective experience via your ears is the important thing at the end of the day. 2. With some hand waving, butyl rubber is more for vibration and foam is more for actual sound, which is why you'll see recommendations to layer those. Mineral wool and open cell foam like an old eggcrate mattress pad are likely superior for absorbing sound, though not ideal for an automotive application. 3. Tire choice is going to play a huge role here in perceived road noise. EV-specific tires often include foam inside them now to reduce noise. 4. I think Tesla did indeed beef up some seals and deadening to make the 2024's quieter, and they added the double paned glass for the front windows, but at the end of the day we're fighting an uphill battle with that huge glass roof that sound waves just bounce off of instead of having any sort of headliner to absorb them. :/ I just got a 2024 Model Y and I plan to experiment by attacking the exterior wheel well liners and and undercarriage splash shields, but I'm going in not expecting much.

Didn't even realize it was you channel, just really liked the video idea. I hope you're enjoying Vegas, we all miss you a lot!

You should do the doors + front wheel arches. That should make a difference. I've done this for an old hatchback once and it made a noticeable difference.

I did like the same stuff on my Honda. I realize that the sound deadening is meant to reduce vibration of the metal, but not blocking sound wave. So for road noise, it just won't help. I think that some type of sound isolation cushion would do that job

Thanks for the effort 💪

noticed most noise come from the doors and the front wheel well.

I did the same on my 22 MYLR, the best result was when I put sound mats inside the fron quarter panels. Its very tough to get as deep as you want to get in there, but it actually made a much better response. I have not done anything to the door panels yet, but I have been told that will make a noticeable difference. Overall, not as dramatic as I had hoped, but I got a very noticeable improvement overall. I used cheaper mats also, and maybe spent about $125 all in.

You put product everywhere it didn’t need to go. Floor is pointless because you already have a massive battery there. Doors, all of them (and yes your sound will improve). Wheel wells Trunk door. Frunk bin (backside) You also need a layer of MLV or fiber sound absorber ON TOP of your first layer of sound dampening (the same stuff you guys used in this video). Tint your windows, use ceramic coating and tint your windshield too. Helps a bit with resonance and sound also. My Tesla is dead quiet.

Great experiment though! Think most of noise comes from windshield, fenders & tires. That noise reverberates w a glass roof too - sun shade may actually dampen more than insulation does. Thanks again

thanks for all that hard work - i'd hire you at my company

You need foam in the area on the left and right side of your rear passengers .. and foam in the door jams on front passenger and driver

Ive heard the front wheel kits are the most effective for road noise! They make them for Model 3 and Y and cost about 150$. Could be worth looking into!

perhaps try quiet ride tires? ...i have a 2021 toyota corolla hybrid that is just killing me on road noise. in order to save gas they cut down on car weight - probably the same with Tesla. Try teaching your kids the art of Zen car door shutting...... :)

Lexus uses felt type liners in the wheel Wells on the outside of the car...

"Loyal watcher and commentator" What was the preparation to get the leg stance on the car like that!!! Apperciate any recommended stretches or clothing ideas.

PSA: watch this at 2x. Or TLDR: it was a fail

GOOD Work but The main reason for that much road noise for model y , is there is no acoustic glass in the rear and top and suspensions are horrible and tires no much driving comfort its just your sitting on top of a beam thats all and no proper sound insulation , the new highland 3 has acoustic glass evrywhere and newer suspensions and tires makes a huge difference , wait for the juniper to come..and save your money ..just buy basics .like floor mats ..and sunshades on top due to sun ..and nice wheel covers if your curb hitter..other than, your saving a ton of money on gas ...

Yup, giant waste of money and time. Preciate you guys!😊

Trade it in for a Lexus..

When you don't know what else to complain about...

So sorry, disappointing
