I have an IBIZA TDI 130 Sports with a very intrusive road noise, resonating through the cabin at speeds from 15mph upwards.

Has anyone else experienced this, if so do you have a solution to this dreadful noise.

Unfortunatley SEAT have not been to helpful in this matter.

If there is anyone that can help I would be most grateful.

Welcome to the forum Freddy.

I didn't have road noise problems in mine. It was quite bad on wind noise tho (like my cabrio is quieter with the roof up).

Tyres make a huge difference to road noise. Mine had Dunlops as standard and Falkens when I put 17's on it.

Yup, I can agree with Fen, wind noise is horrific.

Agreed, wind noise is terrible.

Someone on here said they had this cured by having their door lined up at a bodyshop after SEAT couldn't do it right.

I get awful road noise from mine, esp on dressed roads, which seem to be stupidly popular with Cheshire CC. Does seem to be getting a bit better with age (presumably as the tyres wear) or maybe I've just learned to turn the stereo up another couple of notches!

Strangely, I dont really seem to be bothered by wind noise....!:confused:
