@Rob165x Жыл бұрын

If you turn it off and have a manual you will want an exhaust, the stock one is too damn quiet.

@ratatatatata5290 21 күн бұрын

Mine was off straight from the truck. I test drove an automatic and put down a deposit on a manual while it was still in transit. Engine audio was very obviously on in the auto, but as far as I can tell all original OEM wrapping was on all the seats and the car had 0 miles. It’s been two weeks and I still wonder why it’s off.

@enekoprins 21 күн бұрын

@@Rob165x Which is exactly what I did in the end. Drove with fake engine noise off for around 2 weeks which I still think is better than with it on, but it is very quiet. Something is missing for such a car, so I put on a catback exhaust and now it is how it supposed to be 😃

@Rob165x 21 күн бұрын

@@ratatatatata5290 On the auto it is quieter if not in sport or track mode. Not sure which, but it's an option us manual users wish we had. Since you're still in break in you haven't revved it out enough to notice it, but try the other modes. I think on normal it's only noticeable in the upper ranges but even when it's on loud mode it's more subtle below like 4k, almost sounds natural.

@ratatatatata5290 21 күн бұрын

@@Rob165x I’ll have to look into it. Tbh the whole time I was driving the automatic I was just thinking about how bad the transmission timing was. I’m Not a manual elitist and this is actually my first manual car. I was actually going to buy the auto before I test drove it. 250 miles into break in and I’m already rev-matching through every gear though so it was 1000% worth.

Warning to anyone looking to unplug the sound module on a RHD car (Japan, Australia, UK, etc) it's accessible by removing the glove box, if you remove the side panel you can't get to the clip as the clip is on the right side and only accessible from glovebox removable. BTW it makes the car very quiet and is actually better on until you get an exhaust.

Did you know that If you ever have a radiator leak pull your dip stick you might find enough rtv silicone on it to patch the hole in your radiator. JK JK but seriously every BRZ or GR86 owner check your oil for rtv silicone chunks, many failures have come to light in the past few day and the more examples the better. Let the manufactures know we love these cars and want to love them for a long time. Bring up your concerns to the dealer or manufacturing group and get your car checked asap.

May just be me, but seems risky with finicky electronics. What if you drive out to the parking area of a hiking trail (usually located some distance from any sort of town) then lock both your key fobs in the car and the code refuses to work? Youre looking at VERY expensive remote locksmith visit...assuming you can even find one these days lol. Also simply unplugging the sound thing could be the source of future dash rattles if the plastic connector just dangles. I'd either tape it to something or wrap it in a small piece of foam or bubble wrap.

@KevinVo 2 жыл бұрын

If you live in the fear that electronics are going to fail, what if the electronics of the car no longer recognize the key and you can't start the car? This feature has been built I to Subarus for awhile now. As for the unplugging, of course you can just zip tie the connector away.
