  1. Has anybody put on aftermarket muffler or modification to reduce engine noise in defender max. I have put on sound insulation mats to good effect but would like to further reduce engine noise so when drive in forest not so loud.

    Noise

    I have 2019 hd10 defender lone star. Measured sound levels in back seat and front seat during idle and at 10 miles per hour, and then used thermo tech heat/sound suppressor behind back seats. reduced sound levels in back and front seats by up to 10 decibels, which is significant. I can now talk easily to front seat passenger, and noise levels are low enough in back seat for them to also converse without shouting. Below 85 DB in back seat now, which is the osha level for noise induced hearing loss over 8 hour period. Overall very worth the time and expense. I am going to add more in spots in the engine compartment to further reduce but have to be careful to keep away from the hot spots because some have advised it can drip the asphalt backing even though rated for high heat by manufacturer. I would also like to add some floor mats and put some sound insulator on the bottom. Anybody know where to get aftermarket floor mats for this vehicle?
  4. Can the defender max be emergency towed in the event that you break down in an area where you cannot get a trailer? What do you do out on the trail?
