## 2. Suspension sounds
* Light and medium impacts on the suspension can trigger cabin squeaking and movement sounds.
* Hard impacts can trigger key swinging sounds in the interior view.
## 3. Gameplay / UI sounds

* Quieter volume of PrePass weigh station signals in American Truck Simulator.
## 4. Fuel / Gas station sounds
* Retro/historic ding sound while the fuel is pumping (circa 1960s to 1970s). The number of dings can give you an idea of how much you have refueled.
* Real fuel pump, fuel lid, door close, seat belt click, and key insertion sound effects after refueling to a full tank.
## 5. Interior sounds
* Real stick/switch/button sounds for: parking brake, hazard light, wiper stick, light switch, and blinker / indicator / turn signal.

* AI traffic vehicles have new horn sounds. Depending on the driver’s patience, a short or long honk may be used.
* AI traffic trucks/buses have more variations of detailed sounds (may include turbo sounds, distinctive engine sounds, sounds of gear changes, etc.).
* Variety of engine sounds for several vehicles (e.g. motorbike sounds for motorbikes) in various AI Traffic mods and in stock trucks from the original game.
* You can hear the slight sound of vehicles overtaking you or passing by you in the oncoming lane.
## 8. Mover sounds
* Louder volume and reworked audio for a vast number of moving objects including biplanes, trains (including train horns), etc.
* Enabled sound for a vast number of movers that don’t originally come with sound (e.g. F22 jet fighters, ocean waves, tugboats, hot air balloons, etc.).
## 9. Location-based ambience
* Prefab (i.e. company and delivery point) soundscape enhanced for American Truck Simulator (includes both daytime and nighttime ambience such as cicadas and crickets).
* Suitable volumes and sounds of environmental ambience for various map mods.
* Some suitable sounds included for various companies and delivery points.

* Supports compatibility with rain sound mods such as Realistic Weather Sound 1.7.7 (provides realistic thunder + rain sounds). Both can be enabled at the same time. Check the load order image included for more details.
* If using any of Grimes’ seasonal mods, place the seasonal mod with a higher priority than the Sound Fixes Pack for a more accurate seasonal experience.
* If using winter mods, please enable the Frosty Winter Weather Sound addon from the Options folder of the Sound Fixes Pack for winter sounds.
