Our 1989 R4 GTL, LH drive bought in France, suffers heavily from road noise, but there is nothing at all under the rubber floor mats. It's so noisy on some road surfaces we need ear defenders!
Back in the mid 1970's we had a 1973 850 R4 which I am sure had some under rubber floor mat material; certainly we remember the car being much quieter than our 1989 car, noise was never an issue.
It maybe that Renault considered sound deadening to be an issue in the UK and fitted it, but not in France so didn't fit it?
Anybody fitted sound deadening under the floor mats, and if so, what? From where? And how expensive?
