tmJak Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Since I got my big boy exhaust, my boot vibrates. I belive is a common thing with aftermarket exhausts and crappy Nissan interiors. The vibration is due to the cheap plastic on the inside of the boot connecting with the actual boot lid. Can anyone recommend anything to put between them both to stop this? I know the mechanic Mark at ESR recommended something but forgot what it was I could probably just PM Phil but thought it may be useful for others to know.

tmJak Posted May 5, 2008 Author Share Posted May 5, 2008 Which thickness would you use? Might use it when I take the dash out to try and solve some other rattles so I assume it'd be the 3mm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GIXXERUK Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I would go to b&q and buy some draught excluder (for windows) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3FIDDYZ Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Have you got a Nissan Tonnau cover? If so you need to do the 4 nuts up very tight or you will get a vibration... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmJak Posted May 7, 2008 Author Share Posted May 7, 2008 Have you got a Nissan Tonnau cover? If so you need to do the 4 nuts up very tight or you will get a vibration... No i don't mate. I know where the vibration comes from, it's the plastic inside cover of the boot. It happens when an aftermarket exhaust is used inc Nismo's on occasion. Just need to get the right filler to sort it out now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
