For £300 it must just be a button not a system.
Think we’ve established it just gives the ability to control rather than just have it off in comfort and on in dynamic.
But the sound is the same. Concern was you were missing out without it.
As we are on the subject I assume the sound is muted since the 2019 emission laws?
2019 cars onwards have a gasoline particulate filter in the cat housing and are quieter, they get better with use.Pacemaker1000 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 26, 2021 10:03 amExactly!BruceTheQuail wrote: ↑Sat Jun 26, 2021 1:22 am Ahhh, but I think there was some confusion in the OP's mind about active exhaust vs switchable active exhaust vs normal exhaust, and I have to say I'm not sure whether I have it right myself!

I have pulled fuse 15 out so my exhaust is permanently open. It makes no difference to the fuel consumption.
