Engine drone

Has anyone has a fix to the engine drone sound in the 50 mph range? Not the vibration part, just the sound.

Actually, maybe it is the exhaust management system that is reponsible (the ULEV stuff)??

Re: Engine drone

Someone ever did the testing with 04TL.

4th gear: the average reading is 66-67 dBA
5th gear: the average reading is 72 dBA

Yours is much louder than this?
