Hi All,
I recently purchased a Fiat Punto Evo 1.4 Active, about 2/3 weeks ago.
I am finding it very noisy when driving at speeds higher than 50 mph. I do about 60 miles a day on A roads and dual carriageways, and I have had to resort to wearing earplugs, as I get earache.
I have driven Fiats before and never had such a problem, mind you this was in Italy and I noticed the road surfaces are different.
I thought the problem might be the front tyres, since they were cheap Mohawk ones, I've replaced those with some premium Michelin ones but the noise is still there. The rear tyres are old too, but the thread is still ok.
Does anyone have the same problem? Do I just have to accept this or is there anything that can be done to improve the situation? Other than that, I have no complaints about the car.
Thanks a lot for any help.
