Finally a hands on attitude for untrained but interested ppl. And you show what you do for ex the sound deadning in the wheel section. Everbody else talks about it, but nobody showed it. thanks for that, helps me a lot seeing it visually. A little side note: I would emphasize the three layers clearer to your audience, because I had to rewind a few time to get the layers right as a beginner with the project of sound deadning.

Interesting video. I spotted a couple of things whilst you were taking wheels off & jacking up etc, so here is some unsolicited advice. First, don't remove wheel nuts completely until the car is off the ground; this is likely the reason that the last 2 were so difficult to remove. Removing a wheel nut whilst another is tight causes the wheel to not sit quite as flush, meaning there is more tension held in the remaining bolts. Usually, i'd crack the wheel nuts loose before jacking up, before removing them completely. Another thing about jack stands. Those ratcheting stands are really strong, and usually come with a pin system to secure the ratchet in place which adds more stability and another line of defence if something bad were to happen.

I changed the clutch in my 107 and the biting point was fixed. They're known for being weak in these.

This wasnt mentioned in the video - is this from an x-nav to 3 button? Or something else? Ive just swapped a 2 to 3 but the 2 is an xnav (has sd card in the glove box). You have to also disconnect the USB splitter, and connect the USB connector directly to the head unit. If you keep the splitter, carplay wont work. Removing the splitter will stop the built in nav working, but then carplay will work

At first I thought my new Pioneer speakers were rubbish. The sound was very resonant at first, the bass reproduction was very thin and ugly. After I flattened the doors inside with this stuff I couldn't believe my ears! The bass now sounds so incredibly full and deep! My bass setting was first set to +7 after everything was done, it is at -1 😃

I live in Denmark from where I can buy one ? For my Toyota aygo 2018 ?

When you remove the wheelwell clips, you pull the center out first, and that will make removing the clip easier.

Are they coded ?

to be fair , with all the foam and vibration dampening it looks like Toyota have had a fair stab at sound deadening in the footwells to start with.

How much weight did it add

Nice video, it was really annoying to do this to my forester and it took waaay more than I thought it would, but I hope it’ll make a difference because I haven’t driven it yet and I still have to finish putting it back together. Hopefully I’ll get some time to start making videos on the partial restoration that I’m performing on it soon! Only thing I would correct you on is to not take the clips (you call them studs) like that. That tool shouldn’t go under the clip directly. First you use the lever to pop the center of the clip out (it shouldn’t come out all the way but some do) and only then you pry underneath it. That’s how they are made to work and you risk damaging the clip or the plastic that it’s holding by just prying them out directly. Also, don’t tighten your wheels by stepping on the wrench, buy a torque wrench and use that. Thanks for doing this and showing the results!

I'm a new driver and my first car is a 2014/2015 aygo. When I was looking up pros and cons about it before purchasing it, alot of people talked about the high bite point. But for me, the bite point wasn't the problem, it was the throttle control. Just because there was just so much dead space before the pedal recognised I was giving it gas. And because its such a small engine, you're almost certain to stall it with no gas. I've owned mine for just over a month and I'm still getting used to it. Don't know if its a car problem or just because I have no idea how to drive 😂

Do NOT cut your vapor barrier like that, there's a reason for the vapor barrier, and it is to keep moisture OUTSIDE of your car. Water that rains onto your windows goes down the doors and drains through the doors. With heavy rain and a cut vapor barrier, the water will make its way inside the cabin and you will end up with a soggy floor.

Applying all those soundproofing measures for cars of that class doesn't make a lot of sense

As someone who works in the noise field, it's worth noting that a 1-2 dB noise difference isn't really noticeable in the human ear, 3dB difference is slightly noticeable, 5dB is a distinct difference, 10 dB difference is a doubling/ halving in noise. Definitely invest in a breaker bar for your wheel nuts, and a jack!

Seems like a significant amount of effort for 1-2 decibel drops!

how will this affect my sound system. Does it lower the volume from the speakers?

If you put the wheel youve just taken off the car , under the car you give your self a survival space should the car fall. Costs nothing and takes very little effort , as well as it being the difference between cutting your foot off , and walking away with a bruise , it lets you get the jack back under the car should it fall ... worth a thought.

Another interesting and informative video review. Thanks 🎉

Great series, saw every one of them.

My Aygo is the quietest car I've owned, having said that I've still found your videos interesting.

Is this a compilation of all previous videos you've done?

Seems a good town car pal, just bought a 107 she'd only done 30,000miles so had to buy her.

Looks like Proclip

One of the other most important things not mentioned in this video is really improving your weather stripping and seals around your doors and windoes. This will vastly improve your sound proofing because sound is just a pressure wave that travels through the air and if the air itself can get in then so can the sound. A lot of road noises you are hearing while driving is also just the wind and obviously if you can seal off the inside air from the outside air then there will be less turbulence and thus quieter sound. :)

Many people complain these 1 liter engines are underpowered. But remember these cars are very light as well, so they actually have respectable acceleration up to 70mph. The key with these small engines that uses VVT is to keep the revs up. If you take away the factory slim wheels and put on fat wheels with fat tyres you can corner these small cars at ridiculous speed.

Yeah there are other similar companies that offer such things.. the problems are 2: A) the product offerings aren’t available for your specific vehicle. B) when they are, they might not be engineered in a good location for easy reach and safe use. In this case, it wasn’t offered for my specific make and model year. The American equivalent (proclip) does offer a solution for my car, but it is too far from my hands and blocks the air vent. And sadly they don’t provide any other solutions.

My 2008 Aygo Platinum was fine for 18 months but then the clutch went. Repaired that then 6 months later the alternator and drive belt. Git tgat repaired then another problem came up. I have decided I will probably just get a new car instead of throwing more money into a seemingly bottomless pit.

I think that audibly the ear can only hear 3 dB differences. So it may be a problem in measuring. The butyl damper can be applied across large spaces like door panels by applying small areas of it at distances designed to cancel harmonics. So place them at 1/3, 1/5, 1/7 distances across an area. Try and avoid the even numbers as they can still vibrate on the even distances ie 1/2, 1/4 etc A nice video explaining what you did to insulate the car.

Hi Jamie, I’ve got a Citroen C1 64 plate with the non-touch unit radio and I was just wondering if I buy a screen, would I need to get it coded/programmed to work in my car? Cause I was checking for screens on eBay and the sellers would mention that “it will be need to be coded to your car” or “unlock coded needed” in the description. Would u happen to know if a code is needed?

I believe many others said that, but you ll be fine with only 50 to 60% of surface coverage. In some places even less.

Is there a link where you can buy this?

Had the 2020 Aygo x-clusiv with MMT (Multi-Mode Transmission), i.e. automated manual. It was so smooth once you learned when the computer decides to shift. Also had enough power to be fun - in and outside of cities. And with the x-clusiv package, it was pure luxury. However, moved to a country with the steering wheel on the other side and had to sell it. Once we're settled in properly, our next car will also be an Aygo. The newer models since 2022/2023 are based on the former Yaris chassis - so they now have a proper CVT and lots of other niceties, e.g. wireless charging mat for the phone, wireless CarPlay, etc.

Great video! I'm currently looking around for my very first car and the Aygo has interested me the most.

Well done this is a Brilliant and 100% true review, i am on my 4th Aygo and no intentions whatsoever to change my Model...

do you know, add rubber seal to any hole that connected to the door significantly improve soundproofing than any sound deadening material you add. make sure you have no hole from the wheel to the door. thats the noise came from.

hey, i also switched out the 2 button screen for the 3 button version on my 2019 aygo but my carplay isen't working at all, any ideas on how i could get this to work? thnx in advance

At the start of covid just before 1st lockdown, I packed my 2007 aygo with pasta & toilet roll and drove from my house in the utrecht (Netherlands) to my hometown West Yorkshire via Belgium, France, Channel tunnel etc. 14 hours, 1 tank of fuel, 803km = 64mpg Day to day mixed driving never worked it out properly but roughly 55mpg i think, drive very carefully, more for mechanical sympathy/ engine longevity than economic reasons Great video anyway very interesting!!

I don't know how you didn't stamp on it at some point during the process. I'd have probably done so after seeing the masking tape residue.

Where do you get the new CarPlay screen from?

I have a mk1 2007 3 door that I bought with 60k miles on it in 2013, it now has 130k miles and has never had any issues, I get it serviced every year routinely but otherwise just get in and drive, will keep it a few more years but maybe get a mk2 eventually. Great review!! 🙏

Excellent review 👍🏾

What case do you have on your iPhone 14 Pro Max?
