Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

My switchable sports exhaust when switching to sports mode often doesn't work. Does anybody have experience of this? When I switch engine off and back on again it goes back to default of sports mode but then when I switch switch normal mode, I have to press button lots of times before it eventually goes back to sports mode; any ideas? Thanks Mod Edit CAPS LOCK UPDATED IN TITLE
Re: SWITCHABLE SPORTS EXHAUST STICKING Sounds like a faulty vacuum actuator, it's not releasing the vacuum so keeping the cans in quiet mode. It should be covered by warranty, if not it's not a very expensive part. It's the orangy/brown block to the right of the throttle body.
hi - just making sure you know it switches off automatically between 25-45mph? - Simon
...which you can easily have disabled to allow bus queues etc to enjoy the full majesty of a virtually unsilenced 3.6 flat six :santa:
SWITCHABLE SPORTS EXHAUST Thanks for that. Yes I am aware that it turns off between 25-45mph. The only doubt I have about the vac actuator is that it works fine when you switch ignition off??
is it a case of the switch light isn't going off (indicating the "off" part of the switch is going)? If that's the case then it could be as simple as a dirty switch contact.
would some one PM me to inform how this is done. thanks in advance. :thumb:
Sounds good; How do you disable the 25-45mph interlock?
