Any pipe insulation will help but if your main complaint is waste lines , you could probably blow in insulation around the pipes to absorb the vibrations that make the noise

You need to install acoustic insulation. This will prevent you from hearing all the noise.

1999.5 Jetta 2.0 GLS manual trans. was having a random loud buzzing/clicking noise coming from the instrument panel. The buzz/click has now turned into a loud, constant buzz.

Hi, this is a very common problem and its not only your make peugeot's have the exact same problem, its a tiny little fan that just sits behind the dash and all it does is gently circulate the air round the inside of the dash to keep everything cool and stop and heat building uo

i know its very very annoying but the only option is to take the whole dash out just to get to a fan thats about the size of a milk bottle cap and its just not worth doing, i know its annoying but you will be even more annoyed when you cant put your dash back together,

my mom has got a peugeot with the exact same noise it sounds like their is a fly trapped behind the dash well thats what my mom though anyway she kept banging the dash and spraying fly spray everywhere then when i got in the car she asked me if i could hear the fly and asked how long they live for cuz its been their for ages it was only when i told her it was a little fan she realised that maybe its not a trapped fly.

its up to you rip the dash out and bust the fan but its a big job just to stop a tiny little fan i know its very annoying but their is no easy fix sorry.

let me know how you get on or if you need further assistance ok

plz rate this solution as i have a whole page of unrated posts, thanks

Loud thumping noise

Usually means a needle, knife or looper is bent and everything is out of alignment. Try all new needles and replace knife, then carefully hand-rotate your wheel and watch the alignment as everything stitches in super-slow motion. If you can see the bent part, you MAY be able to gently bend it back in alignment, but because these are such precision machines. it will probably need a service, which is good anyway because the technician can clean and oil the machine very well. It's worth it to have it serviced. Remember when you hear a knocking next time, to stop immediately and investigate.

Maytag side by side fridge makes vibration noise

Mine is a different model, and less than three years old, but the vibrating noise was really annoying. I would shift the unit or the door slightly, and it would stop for a while, as you reported. I took a few minutes, applied pressure to different areas, up and down, inside and out. The noise was louder near the floor. I removed the plastic grill and applied upward pressure on the wires covering the coils - it was loose. I noticed an accumulation of dust, and vacuumed as far as I could reach around the underneath area; also pulled fridge out and vacuumed a dust-covered vent on the back near the floor. Was planning to insert some kind of wedge under the loose part, but when I put everything back in place, the vibration stopped - now I only hear a gentle hum. Seems I did something right in this process.

GLD6200 NOISY

The sound is almost always caused by a worn docking cone “O” ring on the main conduit. When the docking cone “O” ring wears, the mid level spray arm conduit is no longer constrained and it can vibrate against the docking cone, making the “growling” or vibrating sound. Use a plastic wire tie to quickly verify if the growling noise is coming from a worn “O” ring. Snug the mid
spray arm coundit against the upper rack with the plastic wire tie. Run the dishwasher. If the noise goes away, you have verified the presence of a worn “O” ring. Remove the wire tie when the test is completed.
The recommended repair for this problem is to replace the WD12X10059 (titanium) or WD12X10121 (grey) docking cone. These parts supercede to the full main conduit. It is not necessary to replace the full main conduit for this problem. Remove the docking cones from both the existing and new main conduits. Install the docking cone removed from the new
main conduit on the existing conduit still installed in the dishwasher.
