Soundproofing floor Priora
| 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. |
soundproofing technology is the same for all brands and types of cars, however, specific cases have their own characteristics. In the case of Lada Priora, the whole process begins with dismantling the front and rear seats. Next, remove the central tunnel. We unscrew the plastic covers and remove the carpet and the standard Priora sound insulation. To avoid problems during assembly in the future, it is recommended to put all the bolts in separate jars or bags, labeling them.
Assembly after soundproofing . On top of the second layer we lay standard Priora sound insulation and carpet. The thicker the additional sound insulation, the higher the floor will rise. Therefore, getting the seats into place may not be as easy, and the bolts may not reach the threads (you may want to use longer bolts).
As a result, such do-it-yourself soundproofing of the Priora will require about 2-3 days of free time. Quantity of materials required:
There is certainly an effect from the soundproofing of the Lada Priora floor: noise from the road and wheels is reduced, the sounds of the suspension become more muffled, and there are no creaks in the central tunnel.
Remember that the best sound insulation is when a set of works has been carried out aimed not only at insulating from external noise (noise from wheels, engine, wind, etc.), but also eliminating creaks and crickets inside the car.

Second soundproofing layer
The second layer of sound insulation is designed to suppress unnecessary sounds and retain heat, depending on the material used.
The basic principle of operation at this stage is to glue sound-absorbing Accent and heat-insulating Splen on top of the vibration-insulating material. Both materials have a self-adhesive base, so their installation does not require significant effort and special knowledge in the field of sound insulation. It is necessary to cover the surface with soundproofing material 100%. The only exceptions are technological openings, namely ventilation openings. Only in this case will it be possible to achieve the greatest effect.

How much and what material is needed for a Shumka Priora Hatch? My goal is: noise-heat-vibration insulation, the music installation is planned to be average, with a not powerful subwoofer. I will make noise on all doors, floor, ceiling, trunk and trunk lid. Thank you in advance. PS I'm thinking of doing STP
What are the reviews of the VM vibration isolation? Is it worth taking?
What about noisebuster? Good material, vibration iso-7. 10 sheets needed
It took 10 just for the trunk of a sedan, I don’t know how you glue 10 sheets on the whole car
You can use comfort instead of P4, but the price will increase, but the efficiency will also increase)
the price will almost double))
comfort 6 costs 460 rubles per 0.5 sq m, comfort 3-360 rubles, P4-110 rubles per 0.42 sq m
Shumoff 110 sheets of choice (11 sq m), and 25 P4 sheets.
Instead of splen I would only recommend Accent. Spleen is generally such a mess, I regret that I made a fuss about them. Doesn't dampen noise at all and retains heat questionably.
I agree about splen, wasted money...
What can you say about Bibra VM?
Yes, there is quite decent noise as standard, you can’t hear the road at all! like in a Mercedes. Why transfer money?

Vibration isolation
After removing the headliner, degrease the body surface. Then glue the vibration dampers thickly onto the flat surface of the roof. To achieve maximum efficiency, it is enough to cover 70-80% of the surface. It is recommended to heat the material with a hairdryer and roll it with a hard roller, as if stretching it, driving out the vibroplast.
Soundproofing Priors - Floor and Engine Shield
Reassembly of the machine is finally completed
this time I want to talk about the final part of the soundproofing of my car))
here's what I needed:
1) Vibro-plast STP Gold - 12 sheets 2) BiMast Super - 2 sheets 2) Splen 8mm - 8 sheets
Sound insulation of floor and dashboard
Well, firstly, in order to perform sound insulation, you need to disassemble the entire interior:
1) First of all, remove the front and rear seats. there were no difficulties) 2) We disassemble the central tunnel - everything is quite simple there too

Correct soundproofing of a car floor with your own hands
The main source of extraneous noise in the car interior is the wheels, so special attention should be paid to soundproofing the floor. Currently, there are several schemes for its installation. Let's look at the most popular installation methods and determine which scheme is better.
Is floor soundproofing necessary? This modification will reduce the noise level from the wheels, transmission, engine and suspension. Efficiency directly depends on the chosen installation scheme and materials.

Trunk door Lada Priora station wagon 2171 in color
The basis of the Priora 2171 car is the platform of the previous VAZ 2111 model. On the modernized station wagon, the optics and interior were changed for the better, and the engine was modified. The changes also affected changes in many facing body parts: front and rear fenders, hood and modernization did not bypass the rear doors of the Priora station wagon.
The Priora 2171 tailgate (Prior 2171 trunk door) is installed only on station wagons of the Priora family. The folding and single-leaf ones have glued glass and the correct location of the trunk hinges. For smoother opening of the tailgate of the Priora station wagon, telescopic gas shock absorbers are used. The “cracker” design has two panels, external and internal, assembled together using a flange connection with glue. The trunk door of the Lada Priora station wagon is stamped from low-carbon sheet steel 0.8 mm thick.
Today it is possible to buy a tailgate for a Priora station wagon painted in the color of the car's body. The price of a painted part is much more favorable than repairing an old tailgate on a Priora station wagon or painting a new one at a car repair shop. This was achieved thanks to in-line painting of body parts and a minimal markup.
The trunk door 2171 is painted using German equipment using technologies recommended by AvtoVAZ. Each color-matched body part has its own four-layer packaging, which protects the part during transportation and completely eliminates damage to the paint surface.

Reviews after soundproofing the floor
Results before and after soundproofing the floor on a Lada Vesta:
Recently, the results of complete sound insulation of the Lada Vesta sedan were published. As a result of the work done, the noise in the car interior was reduced by 1.5 dB (according to material manufacturers, the difference is 2-4 dB ). You can imagine what the effect will be just from treating the floor.
What reviews can you leave about floor soundproofing? What scheme is best to follow when performing work?

Materials
Let's start, of course, with the materials used in sound insulation:
- Vibration insulation is a material that absorbs vibrations, based on bitumen, mastic or a combination of them, requires warming up before application
- Noise (sound) absorber - a finely porous material in which sounds fade away and are absorbed
- Sound reflector - a material whose structure reflects sound waves in the opposite direction
- Squeak suppressor (anti-creak) - a material used to eliminate friction between the rubbing elements of the interior trim and the dashboard (see Soundproofing a car's dashboard is always necessary)
It makes no sense to go into details about the construction of materials, so let’s get to work. I will list the most common brands - vibration insulation - Vibroblast or Bimast, sound absorber - Accent, sound reflector - Splen, squeak suppressor Madeline or Bitoplast.
You can purchase their analogues if the price of the ones I have given does not suit you, or these particular ones are not on sale.
Soundproofing
The stages of sound insulation are divided into several types: double and triple.
Classification:
Immediately before soundproofing the floor, it is necessary to dismantle all interior elements that will interfere with the process. In this case, these are: seats, center console and carpet. The exception is the panel (torpedo) and its components.
Advantages and options for upgrading car locks
Any option for modifying your own car has its pros and cons. It was already discussed at the beginning why exactly it is worth modifying the trunk lock of the Kalina hatchback and station wagon. Now about the possible options. Installing the trunk lock activator alone solves one problem - the issue of using the key. The downside is that when the ignition is on, pressing the trunk open button will not help Kalina hatchback and station wagon: the engine will definitely have to be turned off.
True, you no longer have to remove the key from the ignition. That is why the issue of installing a trunk release button for Kalina hatchback and station wagon remains relevant. This modification option has its drawback: you will have to run the electrical wire through almost the entire car. Most car owners are willing to put up with such inconveniences, since they are one-time use.
The Kalina hatchback trunk lock drive and the issue of modification are a matter exclusively for the car owner. It is possible that it is impossible to independently modify the trunk lock of the Kalina hatchback, and there is nowhere to turn. In some regions, purchasing a lock for a Lada Priora car can be difficult. According to many motorists, this disadvantage can somehow be put up with.
For particularly skillful car owners, options for controlling door opening/closing mechanisms, including the fifth door, are available. For example, the simplest option is one in which all the doors of the car are unlocked simultaneously. And the most complex option, which is not achievable for everyone, since it requires a somewhat non-standard approach, is that the driver, passenger and fifth doors are controlled separately.
Naturally, the options for modifying the Kalina hatchback and station wagon lock differ in cost, execution technique, and time required for a full range of work. The decision which option to choose is always up to the owner.
In order to successfully replace the trunk lock in a domestic car Lada Kalina in a sedan, station wagon and even a hatchback, you will need to stock up on some tools and accessories. The algorithm of actions is simple, so such work is available to owners subject to responsible preparation.
Next, we will consider in detail the nuances of the replacement process.
Replacing the old trunk lock
Initially, you should perform a series of sequential actions:
Then all rubbing surfaces are lubricated and a new lock is installed; the parts are assembled in the reverse order.
Remove the lining, unscrew the gear motor. Disconnect the gear motor, remove the lock drive rod . Disconnect the rod from the lock drive lever . Then the lock drive rod is removed from the switch . Unscrew the fastenings, remove the lock. Loosen the fastenings and remove the trunk lid drive lever.
