What are the solutions for car resonance?
2 Answers
Solutions for car resonance are as follows: 1. Change the cabin space by opening the windows, which can reduce the "buzzing" sound. Altering the space volume and allowing low-frequency noise to dissipate, or filling the space with items, can also improve the situation. 2. Modify the car body properties by installing sound-absorbing materials. 3. Play high-frequency music in the cabin, such as flute or violin music. The addition of high-frequency music can alter the overall noise frequency inside the cabin. 4. Visit a 4S shop for a comprehensive car inspection and adjustment. Engine resonance involves comprehensive issues such as parts, joint treatment, and tuning.
I've been driving for over a decade and have encountered vehicle resonance several times, especially when maintaining specific speeds on highways where the body shakes violently. That kind of vibration makes your hands numb and the steering wheel hard to grip. The solution is actually quite simple: First, observe at what speed the vibration occurs. For instance, if it happens between 60 to 80 km/h, it's mostly caused by unbalanced tires. Getting a four-wheel balance or replacing the tires at a shop can fix it. If the engine compartment shakes along with it, check if the engine mounts are worn out—replacing them can solve the problem. Loose chassis suspension components can also cause resonance, so tightening bolts or replacing shock absorbers will help. Additionally, don't overlook bearing issues. I once had resonance due to a bad rear wheel bearing, and it became much quieter after replacement. Regular maintenance should include checking these parts to avoid minor issues turning into major repairs. While resonance isn't immediately dangerous, prolonged exposure can damage the frame. Spending a little money to address it ensures safer and more comfortable driving.
