Removing the trunk trim nissan x trail. Noise isolation nissan x trail using tar

Or from the inside, extraneous noise, a desire to replace or improve the audio system, etc.) it was necessary to remove the door trim Nissan x-trail, then you can do it. To work, you need the very minimum of tools:

Necessary tools for work

  • Crosshead screwdriver;
  • Plastic crowbar;
  • Stationery knife;
  • Sealant (may not be useful);
  • Ratchet wrench with a set of interchangeable sockets.

If you don't have special tool made of plastic, in order to pry off the panels without fear of scratching them, you can do with an ordinary medium-sized flat screwdriver.

Removing the side door trim on the X-Trail T30 (1st generation)

  • When it comes to side doors, the first step is to remove the cover on the opening handle. The developers took care in advance to facilitate dismantling and even provided for a special groove from which it is worth starting to disconnect. It is located in the side, from the side windshield... You need to insert a screwdriver into it and gently pry the panel. It is fastened with plastic clips, so do not press too hard or too hard, otherwise you may damage the panel or break the fasteners.
  • The second step is to detach the power window control panel. It is removed in the same way as on the handle, but already entirely. There are bundles of wires coming up to the inside, so you should act even more carefully here. Disconnect all plugs from the panel and remove it entirely.
  • The casing itself is attached to four screws, which are located under the removable control panel. Unscrew them in random order, without fear that the plastic will then fall off. Additionally, it is fastened with latches along the entire perimeter of the door. At the bottom of the casing, approximately in the middle, there is a hole where you insert a screwdriver and begin to gently pry the sheet. It is advisable to do this sequentially, moving along the perimeter. If you are working with a screwdriver, you can wrap a cloth around it or put a soft rag on to protect the painted parts from scratching.
  • After all latches are disconnected, remove the panel. Under it is located protective filmprotecting inner space from hitting small objects, which then make noise when driving. This film is attached to a special mastic, which is carefully cut with a clerical knife and can be glued back, so after detaching, put it on a clean surface. If, in the process of work, small debris has adhered to the "native" glue or it has lost its functional properties from time to time, then remove its remnants from the film and replace it with a sealant prepared in advance.

Removing the side door trim on the X-Trail T31 (2nd generation)

Working with the Nissan X-Trail T31 is not fundamentally different and will require the same set of tools. You need to start with the door opening handle. A plastic plug is located under it, which closes access to the bolt. After unscrewing it, you will need to remove the chrome trim on the door. To do this, carefully pry it off with a screwdriver and disconnect it from the latches. There are two more bolts under it.

The next step is to detach the glass control panel and mirror adjustment. It can also be easily snapped off with a screwdriver. After you pull it out, you will need to disconnect all the wires.

Now you can remove the panel itself. Pry it at the top, in the middle and, without applying much force, pull it towards you, It is attached to plastic latches, which are quite easy to damage. The last step the dismantling will be the disconnection of the cables that are routed to the opening handle and the power supply of the lamp in the lower part of the door.

Remove the side door trim on the X-Trail T32 (3rd generation)

Cars of the third generation do not have cardinal differences in the fastening of the skin, and therefore you will need the same set of tools.

  • Remove the carbon look around the door opening handle. It slips off easily, the only thing is that the direction of the applied forces should be inside this panel. There is a bolt to the right of the handle, unscrew it.

  • Then detach the plastic handle. This must be done from the bottom up, starting from the narrow part, where it is attached to the sheathing plate. Under it is a metal plate, which is fastened with three bolts and three self-tapping screws. Then remove the second part of the plastic handle.
  • Now detach the power window control panel. Start on the thicker side because the thin one goes under the base of the door plate. There is another bolt under it that will need to be unscrewed.

  • You can remove the plastic panel, to do this, pull the material a little at the top, where the door opening handle is located, until you hear the sound of detachment from the latches. Then repeat the same procedure around the entire perimeter of the door. When the trim is detached from all latches, simply pull it up and out of the grooves.

Noise isolation Nissan x trail

Noise isolation Nissan x trail is a very responsible and important process, which almost all car owners of this brand face.

The need for it is obvious, because thanks to this, the sound characteristics of the speaker system can be significantly improved. But, of course, on Nissan x trail, noise isolation requires certain skills and knowledge.

Interior soundproofing

Many car owners point out that this is the most difficult process, during which some difficulties may arise. Therefore, it is recommended to start with it so that the sound insulation of the rest of the car components is more successful.

Everything happens in this way:

  • First of all, you should remove all unnecessary from the cabin. To do this, you need to unscrew, and then remove the seats and chairs. It should be noted that the front seats are fastened with four bolts, a seat belt fastening sensor (from the belt), as well as plugs (from the airbag). Each of them must be unscrewed before starting to remove the seat.

Note: the rear seats are removed much more easily by disconnecting the two clips. However, it will be very difficult to remove the backrest, since it will take a lot of effort.

  • The next step is to remove the roof. There are front plastic brushes on the racks that must be removed. The same should be done with the rear brushes;
  • Now you need to pay attention to all the details that are located on the ceiling. This is a sun visor, lighting shade and the like. They can be removed using a Phillips screwdriver. The main thing is that it has the right size;
  • After that, you can remove the roof sheet through the opening in the rear door;
  • After the roof is completely dismantled, you can start disassembling the "beard". You can also use, again, a Phillips screwdriver for this.

Note: if it is not at hand, a regular knife will do. But in this case, it will be a little difficult to carry out all the actions.

We continue:

  • Next, you need to pull out the cover, which is located near the ashtray (just below it);
  • Now you should unscrew all visible screws, as well as those that are located under the driver's and passenger's seats. This must be done quickly, but carefully;
  • When this manipulation is completed, everything can be removed quickly and easily without much effort. This is not necessary. On the contrary, for correct installation new, the old will improve its characteristics;
  • Before proceeding with the installation of new sound insulation, you need to thoroughly clean the surface from dust and dirt. In order for the materials to adhere better to the vehicle, it is recommended to degrease the parts on which the insulation will be installed;
  • It is not recommended to cut the insulation material into large pieces. It is better to cut out small parts, which will then be sealed joint to joint. Otherwise it will be difficult to transfer the material. It will be even more difficult to glue it. In addition, it is practically impossible to properly align it at the end;
  • First insulating layer must be made of high-quality material with good characteristics - tar. It must be warmed up with a construction hair dryer, as a result of which the material will slightly melt. This will contribute to its secure adhesion to the surface.

Note: It is also important to smooth the material with a roller during operation, otherwise it will not spread evenly.

  • Second layer - made of vibrating material, must be neatly laid on top of the first. It is very important that it is tightly packed without the formation of bubbles;
  • Places where the metal surface is visible should be sealed with a vibration isolator.

Note. Recently, a lot of new materials for noise insulation have appeared on the markets. So find suitable option - not a problem. Tar and its installation is a “old-fashioned way”, but very, very effective. If you don't want to mess with it, it is recommended to choose some kind of vibration isolator.

Luggage compartment insulation

Installation of soundproofing on the trunk in Nissan is carried out as follows:

  • First of all, you need to remove all elements that may interfere with the normal installation of insulation. If there are no such parts on the lid, then there are a lot of them on other surfaces. These are hooks, caps, plastic casing, rubber casing;
  • The algorithm resembles the execution of interior insulation. That is, it occurs in three layers. The first one is anticorrosive so that the metal surface does not rust. Further - tar, and after - vibration isolation material.

Note: materials from any known manufacturer can be used. It should be borne in mind that they may not be intended specifically for a car, therefore building materials can also be used.

Door insulation

  • Now you need to unscrew all the bolts that are under the control unit. In addition, you need to pay attention to the screws located around the perimeter. After that, it will be possible to remove the skin without any effort;
  • There is also a small piece of foam in the door. It must be removed and thrown away - it is no longer needed;
  • With small pieces of vibroplast, glue the entire interior doors. After that, you can start pasting the outer surface;
  • Also, the door card must be glued with a double layer of bitoplast;
  • After the glue has dried, you can start assembling.

The price of vibration isolation materials ranges from 7-8 thousand. This is not much, considering that in a car workshop, about 40,000 would have to be paid to complete such a process.

And why, if you can do everything yourself? Before starting work, you should familiarize yourself with the photos and videos, which are in sufficient quantity on the Internet. We hope our instructions will also be helpful.

The maximum includes the hood, 4 doors, floor and wheel arches, ceiling, trunk, rear fenders, trunk lid. Soundproofing the instrument panel and engine shield or wheel arches from the outside - for an additional charge.

with work and material

Our guest is another Japanese - Nissan X Trail. We have these cars so often that we can call them our bestseller. The owner's complaints are not surprising - the car's sound insulation is mediocre, especially the rumble of the wheels. Our team will make a complete soundproofing of the car in 9 hours in the presence of the owner of the car, after which it will be unrecognizable, because we do our work not formally for show, but with soul and carefully selecting materials for vibration damping and noise absorption. By the way, we have only one processing option, and it implies the use of only the most top-end and freshest materials, without the possibility of choosing an economy or standard. We invite you to evaluate our approach to work and compare it with other offers on the market.

Our work begins even before the car arrives by appointment. We cut all the soundproofing material before starting work and place the sheets in special ovens that will maintain uniform heating and a material temperature of about 50 degrees throughout the day. When the turn of the installation of sound insulation comes, we simply take ready-made warm and evenly heated sheets, and proceed directly to the installation. The work is fine-tuned to the smallest detail, starting with clean gloves and ending with a professional highly specialized tool.

X-trail bonnet soundproofing. The hood has a complex shape between the ribs, so we carefully cut out the vibration isolation and process the metal of the hood between the ribs. We apply noise-thermal insulation of PPU or PPE on inner side standard hood lining.

X-Trail roof soundproofing.If the vehicle comes equipped with panoramic roof (as a sample in the photo), in this case, the ceiling is not soundproofed, and the cost of work is reduced. In our practice, cars came with and without a panorama. Let's consider the case if the roof of the car is "normal". After carefully disassembling the ceiling cladding, we degrease the metal of the roof. The first layer we apply light vibration isolation Comfort mat Dark D3, which will reliably protect the roof not only from vibrations, but also from accidental dents. The second layer is a modern sound absorber based on dense Felton felt 10 millimeters thick. The sound insulation is installed with a full roof covering, after which the ceiling is assembled. Craftsmen work with clean hands so that no one will upset the owner after assembly.

Noise insulation of X-Trail doors.We do soundproofing of doors in 4 layers. But, first, we carefully disassemble the door trim and degrease the inside of the doors and dry them. During the disassembly of the skins, we guarantee that we will not leave a single hook or broken piston.

The outer wall of the door is pasted over with a vibration damper Comfort mat Dark D3, which is carefully rolled to the metal. The material is efficiently smoothed with rollers so that nothing comes off from such a vertical plane, even in the most difficult to reach places

Then we use 6mm Comfort mat Vision foam rubber to protect the door from outside noise. This is a 100% moisture resistant material consisting of foamed rubber (not to be confused with PPE Splen), the use of which in a humid environment is 100% justified!

The door frame also needs to be damped and we make it using the same lightweight Dark D3 from the premium Comfort mat line.

Sound absorption inside the door is completely assigned to the Comfort mat Soft Wave 15 viscoelastic pyramids, which absorb great amount airborne noise walking inside the skin. What's more, this material contributes to a tight fit of door trim without crickets or other squeaks.

In our workshop, the comfort of several vehicles improves every day. The owners who are present with us can not only control the work at every stage, but also exchange impressions of the work and cars with each other.

X-Trail floor, trunk and wheel arches insulationwill make the greatest contribution to the effect of the whole work, since it is the most noise and vibration-loaded part of any car. Therefore, it is most important here to use only the most powerful and evil materials in order to squeeze out all the possibilities to 100%.

In order to do our job beautifully, efficiently and accurately, we take out of the cabin and trunk everything that can interfere with us: seats, center console, carpets, upholstery.

Let us remind you that all our vibration isolation has been cut from the very morning and placed in special stoves. Therefore, when the moment of installation of materials begins, we simply take out evenly heated sheets from the oven and immediately begin rolling. In this case, our flagship hot vibration damper Comfort mat Ultra Loker 4.2 mm is used on the floor in the cabin and wheel arches. with two layers of foil. It is a very framed, powerful and evil vibration isolation. Only this one is able to fully combat structure-borne noise in metal, in contrast to thin materials with the Aero attachment.

This vibration isolation (red with two layers of foil) is exclusively produced on a separate Comfort mat conveyor and does not go on sale either in retail or in other studios. Auto-Locker status: this is the flagship installation center for Comfort mat materials in Moscow. The boot floor, as well as the metal of the rear fenders, are treated with a Comfort mat Dark D3 damper.

Now it is the turn to install the soundproofing layer. On the floor in the cabin, we use 6 mm Comfort mat Vision foam rubber, this is the premium Comfort mat sound insulation, which has the highest efficiency index. But that's not all.

We cover the foam rubber with a layer of a dense and thick sound-insulating rubber membrane Blocker, and we treat the trunk with a two-layer sandwich BlockShot 7 mm, which also has a sound membrane in the final layer.

Thus, the entire surface of the floor m of the trunk is covered with a layer of dense sound-insulating membrane, which significantly increases the efficiency of the sound absorber placed under it. This technology fully complies with the highest standards of modern car noise insulation and has not yet been invented better than a "sandwich".

Do not forget about the fifth door. Its metal is vibration-insulated, and the casing is processed with a thick layer of noise-absorbing "pyramids".

The assembly of the salon begins and our craftsmen do it clearly and professionally, it's nice to see.

For an additional fee, we offer a dashboard and engine shield soundproofing service with dismantling. This will get rid of the squeaks and bounce of the dash, as well as additionally muffle the engine and the front wheel arches. Thanks to rich experience of our X-Trail disassembly experts since 2007, we confidently guarantee you the proper build quality of the cabin in accordance with factory standards, as well as the absence of disassembly marks in the form of spots, hooks and broken caps. We invite you to make sure of all this by being present at the soundproofing of your car.

Noise isolation Nissan XTrailready and we do all this work in front of the owner for about 9 hours. The car in the process of work has become heavier by about 48 kilograms of the most top-end sound absorbers, which will work 24 hours a day and 365 days a year for the benefit of the comfort and peace of the driver and passengers. The result of the work was a more pleasant ride on high speeds, the car now dully swallows pits and joints and is generally perceived as more knocked down and solid by reducing the background noise and the disappearance of squeaks in the cabin. We have heard a lot of reviews about our work, our work is often compared with the creation of other offices and even official dealers and the most important result is our sound insulation compared to analogs, "like heaven and earth." We didn’t come up with it, our clients say it. We are waiting for you too!
