    Default road noise so loud

    Hey guys, road noise in my mps is so loud that the bluetooth phone system doesn't work. IE, no one can hear me talking on it over the road noise.

    I've dynamated the boot and under the back seat. Seems to have made little to no difference.
    Tried several different brands of tyres. All of which have made little to no difference over 80kmh. Current non-directional tyres are the quietest i've had at lower speads. But cruising spead is insanly loud.

    Any advise? Has anyone else expereinced road noise this loud?

    Have you any mods mate? I have an turbo back exhaust and I can chat on the phone just fine. Possibly the bearings are running dry/noisy drive axle/diff?
    What sort of noise is it? Like tyre noise? When was the last time your camber/alignment/balancing and general inspection done...?

    If you've tried tyres, I'd say it's a wheel bearing making noise.

    Did this end up being a wheel bearing? I seem to be having the same problem, loudest at around 80kph and above. Its annoying the hell out of me. Gen 1 MPS3....
