Audi VW Sound Absorber - Genuine Audi VW 323863950

Product Information

Automotive sound insulation, also known as soundproofing or sound deadening, refers to the use of materials and techniques to reduce noise and vibrations within a vehicle's cabin. This enhances driver and passenger comfort, improves the quality of the car's sound system, and creates a more comfortable feel.

• Excessive Road Noise: A noticeable increase in tire and road noise filtering into the cabin could mean issues with the sound insulation in the floor or doors.
• Loud Engine Noise: If the engine sounds significantly louder than usual, it may point to problems with the insulation under the hood or elsewhere in the engine compartment.
• Increased Vibrations: Feeling more vibrations through the steering wheel, pedals, or seats can indicate problems with the exhaust system or sound dampening materials.

About Genuine VW Audi

The Volkswagen Group, also known as “VAG”, consists of Volkswagen, Audi, Lamborghini, Bentley, Bugatti, Porsche, Ducati, MAN, Scania, SEAT, and Skoda. The original parts used by VAG to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine VAG” brand. Manufactured under the direction of VAG, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are available exclusively through the VAG Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your VAG are not necessarily manufactured by VAG. No cause for concern, as VAG designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for VAG for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine VAG parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a VAG logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
