Pretty sure it pipes artificial exhaust noise into the cabin

i might be mistaken and be thinking of the taycan though

And that can cause a car to breakdown?!?!

soundaktor.......

I didn't think this thing had a soundaktor. I disabled it in my Cayman. If it does have one, I'm sure it can be disabled.

If the car has Sport Exhaust, it has a soundaktor.

For the GTS and TurboPP, Sport Exhaust is standard equipment, and they would have a soundaktor mounted to the firewall.

There's been discussion about this in the PSE install thread, among others.

This makes me glad I did not pick the sport exhaust option...

Ever heard it ?? If you don’t like it …unplug it.
In my case……I turned it up .

I would sincerely hope not.

PSE sounds awesome from outside

Lots of people regret they did not option it

I know and it's understandable. Some like to have it and keep it always open and yes, while it doesn't sound bad, I just tend to prefer an as quiet ride as possible. I also hate fake noise devices with a passion.

Speaking of PSE, I did see a video of some Porsche reviews in Europe where they found out that even with the PSE activated and fully open, the car would still close it in a specific RPM range. It appeared to be like this by design. I think they showed a 718 and a 911. Wondering if this is happening also with the Macans and if it's worldwide, or just some regulation requirement in EU.

I have read that EU has certain mph sound limits. Likely where the flaps close to comply.

Baffled how the PSE soundaktor could relate to the first post. (multiple errors and engine hopping)

Maybe its vibrations knocked some connections loose? Just thinking out loud...

 

[docsimonm]

Correct. While I’ve not had an in depth explanation, it’s the thing that makes it noisier inside. Would have been interesting to see if the problem would have been fixed if I turned it off.

A whole “module” needed to be replaced. Took a part from another car.

So in UK does bunny hop translate to rattle?

I litterally paid to add the soundaktor to my Macan so pretty well versed in the unit.

What could you possibly mean? Are you inferring that I somehow damaged the car and caused it to do this????????

I don’t think he understood the problem….. A 4 wheeler suv should be able to take it,
thigs could get worse on an off road rugged trail

I don’t think he understood the nature of the problem…..A 4 wheeler suv should be able to take
that and even more, if it doesn’t, what is going to happen on an off road rugged trail..?
