Car Forum / Porsche / Porshe 944 / January 2007Is it normal for 944's to be loud?
My 1985.1 944 seems to be very loud within the interior. I was just wondering if this is normal? Is there anyway to make them more quieter? this usually happens because of an aftermarket muffler, bad motor mounts, or broken balance shaft belt - > My 1985.1 944 seems to be very loud within the interior.

SignaturePosted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com It can also be due to a badly sealing rear hatch, this can be easily readjusted so long as the adjusters have not rusted up. New adjusters a inexpensive. My car is quite quiet.

Mine, for example, is quite loud, but it has an open exhaust (no cat/no muffler), so your car probably isn't that loud. You could have an exhaust leak or a crack in the header, or something like that. Being a sports car, it will never be as quiet as a Honda or anything...

After discovering broken balance shaft belts on my '89, I was amazed at how much quieter it was. > this usually happens because of an aftermarket muffler, bad motor mounts, > or broken balance shaft belt - > >> My 1985.1 944 seems to be very loud within the interior.
