splash noise when driving thru rain/puddles
I've noticed the Ridge makes alot more noise than any other car I've been in when I drive thru puddles or just heavy rain. The spray is hitting something underneath that's not very well isolated/insulated and transferring the noise to the cabin.
I decided it's most likely the support brackets for my running boards getting hit with the spray from the wheels. I bought a can of DupliColor underbody coating spay that's supposed to have rubber sound deadening material in it. I used the whole can and sprayed all the brackets. Of course now it's sunny and 65 degrees so I've not idea if it solved the problem or not, looking forward to the next rain storm.
Anyone without running boards or steps notice the louder than normal splash noise?
