Hi,
It's been a while since I last posted.
So here is how the story begins. I frequently use my remote start option as I walk in to the car. First couple of months I liked the exhaust note when I press the button with pronounced sound and high volume. After couple of months dealer had to reconfigure the software because of the engine warning sign. However, after the reconfiguration the exhaust note seemed to be diminished with less volume and pitch. First I thought I was making this up and I didn't have any proof to back this up.
Last few days I had the chance to get a Ghibli S Q4 loaner car from the dealer while I do some fixes on my car. I go to my garage and do the usual remote start..... and yes the cold start reminded me of my initial exhaust note with high volume and pitch sound. I brought this up to the dealer but they keep insisting my car is in normal condition and there is nothing wrong with the exhaust. I'm pretty sure something must have changed (maybe the software reconfiguration is the culprit?).
What would make difference in the cold start exhaust note? RPM? exhaust pipe itself?
Any thought or input on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
