Hi all

Just tipped over 5.5k on the clock in the car this week and I've noticed (much to my approval) the pops and bangs are getting louder. However I've noticed they are much louder and more frequent in sport mode than cupra? Especially when using the paddles to downshift. Has anyone else experienced this? I'd have thought that cupra mode should create the most noise?
Car is stock exhaust with gpf etc.

Cheers

I’ve noticed the same thing in my Manual 18 300.
Much more reliable pops and bangs in sport than Cupra mode when having a little rev at some traffic lights or something.
But under driving conditions and hard acceleration I find more pops/farts in Cupra mode….work that one out!
