Hello everyone - I've read many of the posts here and although I've experienced some of the same problems (brake fade, 3rd brake light came off at carwash, window rattles, and DVD problems) I really love my '04 Armada. The one issue the bothers me the most is probably the "loud" noise of the engine - it seems noticeably louder than other engines of similar displacement. The engine has plenty of power and mechanically seems fine - it's just quite a bit louder than I'd prefer in the cabin, and it's not the wind noise. Today during an automatic downshift climbing a hill my wife asked me why I was "flooring" it (RPM's @ 2500). I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions to provide a quiter cabin experience....I noticed a posting that compared the QX56 and the poster said the double pane glass and better interior insulation provide this effect. Does anyone have any experience with this and where would I go for assistance???
Thanks much!
