Rav 3 Soundproofing

[Big Kev]

Hi Fellow Enthusiasticals,

Not that I am implying McRavvity is in any way noisy, but I have always remarked to myself it might benefit from the customary under-bonnet felt stuff that many of my previous cars had as standard.

Maybe mine was nicked, as it certainly aint there. Does a Toyota or after market kit exist?

Regards,

Big Kev.

Perhaps Toyota are saving money on S180's compared with T 180's !! Mine certainly has got it.

Mine also has it and my other 4.3 had it also .

[anchorman]

..........and you had me questioning myself but nope, here it is;

There is an explanation but we'll discuss that when I see you. In the meantime there are breakers on eBay and Kingo might have some in his "offer box"!!!

Looks like yet another Toyata penny-pinch. Anchorman has got it in his working class model, the XTR of original 4.3 vintage. Yooz posh folk in your T180's

have got it in your "range topping versions". Us wee SR180 folks have to listen to a modicum of increased engine noise, all to save a dollar or dos.

Just for a giggle, I will ask Mr.T for a price for his more than likely silver plated after market part....come in Parts King....send me a PM, AS JUST GOT NEW SUPPLY OF VALLIUM.

Kev, no need to be embarrassed, I've found a special Sr 180 soundproofing kit, won't improve your eyesight at all, but as an added benefit will keep your ears warm, when theres a cold wind in the Trossachs.. Stew
