How to Solve the Noise from the Bora's Center Console?
2 Answers
The solution to the noise from the Bora's center console is: locate the source of the noise, confirm the friction point, and then place a rubber-like material to block it. The Bora is a sedan produced by FAW-Volkswagen, with dimensions of 4663mm in length, 1815mm in width, and 1473mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2688mm. In terms of appearance, the Bora features wing-shaped headlights with a strong three-dimensional effect. The rear design has changes in the contour and light clusters compared to the current model, with more streamlined body lines and the use of aluminum alloy wheel styles. For the suspension, the Bora uses a McPherson independent front suspension and a torsion beam independent rear suspension.
When I used to drive a Bora, I often encountered a buzzing sound from the dashboard, and I tried fixing it myself a few times with good results. Most of the noise usually comes from loose plastic parts or excessive gaps, especially noticeable in winter due to cold contraction. First, simply press different areas with your hand to locate the source, such as near the glove box or air vents. If there's a creaking sound, you can use rubber pads or felt tape to fill the gaps and eliminate friction. For loose fasteners, gently pry open the panel and tighten the screws. During regular maintenance, periodically check if the dashboard panels are secure to reduce vibrations on bumpy roads. Remember, don't use excessive force to avoid damaging other components, and if you really can't fix it, then take it to a repair shop. Doing this saves money and time, and can also prevent bigger issues.
