Today, noise perceived by the occupants is becoming an important factor driving the design standards for the design of most of the interior assemblies in an automotive vehicle. Buzz, Squeak and Rattle (BSR) is a major contributor towards the perceived noise of annoyance to the vehicle occupants. An automotive vehicle consists of many chassis assemblies which are the potential sources of BSR noise. The potential locations of critical BSR noise could be contained within such assemblies as well as across their boundaries. Engine mount design is major area where BSR noises can be heard inside cabin on various road conditions. Natural rubber is regular rubber used in engine mount applications but in this paper BSR problems are solved by changing the rubber compound i.e., NR+BR (slippery compound). Detailed case study is presented where slippery rubber compound is used which is solving BSR issue and also meeting durability targets.
