So, I've recently picked up my 310 hp version of the Formentor, and while I really enjoy the occasional pop from the exhaust I am not a fan of the fake engine sound in the cabin.

As far as I can tell, the exhaust pops only when in sport or Cupra mode, but both of these settings come with the artificial noise as well. There is a "pure" setting in individual mode, and I thought that would be what I am looking for, but I it seems to be identical to comfort mode.

Any ideas?

Thank you.
 
Here is how I do it: deactivated the soundaktor via Obdeleven, then set the exhaust in individual settings to CUPRA. Now you have zero noise from the sound system but pops and bangs at the same time. There is one caveat, you will need to put in CUPRA and then in Individual every time you start the car - for some reason the claps stay closed unless you put it in CUPRA mode first. But once you do that, they stay open while you are in Individual.

There are 2 settings required in order to get pops&bangs: engine and sound set on sport/cupra
Engine and drivetrain settings are not kept between restarts that is why even though flaps are open there will be no pops.
 
I know that this thread is a long time ago but I got the Cupra formentor 1.4 hybrid 2024 model and it has no cupra mode, did they remove the mode or this model does not have it.

Because the car has no fake sounds
