Scirocco - Noise Generator?

[Diesel_vert]

Apparently, the new BMW M5 has the engine sound being played through the speakers.

I thought someone was just taking the piss when I first read it, but...

Though I suppose one upside is that, in theory, you can make it sound like an F1 V8. Yeah!

I doubt very much if it does anything if it is fitted to the Scirocco...the aural ambience inside mine has changed since the tune regardless of throttle position... Not to mention the noticeable blip on downchange when in sport mode... Non of which would be simulated with a "speaker".
That you have needed to change your exhaust to get what the Scirocco has from standard must be annoying...😉

You do realise that VW would have upgraded the standard exhaust system to a "sports" system at the factory for the Scirocco and it's just included in the price of the new car?

See below for a description.

I fully understand that system...so far no-one has been able to confirm it exists in the Scirocco...and as good as VW are I don't thing they are clever enough to have a sound file on the system for when you install a tune...
I am fully able to hear the exhaust not on my car just as easily as you do on yours.. Mine is factory...not that it makes much difference...

A dealer salesperson at vw barloworld did make a comment that there was 'artificial sound' in the Rocco when I was checking it out - thought he was joking,..

When I get back into the country I will have a look on my Rocco for this device... Personally... I it is fitted it does nothing as the sound inside mine has changed considerably since I loaded on the tune.

I use substantially less throttle than standard yet the exhaust is just a prominent and when I hit 2400 rpm you can hear turbo spool which is non existent from stock...

I liked how mine sounded from new... I love how it sounds now...

I can't see any references to either a noise generator or soundaktor on the sciroccocentral forums and these guys have a huge depth of knowledge with respect to these cars. Maybe it is not fitted to the Roc as Andych thinks!

EKTA doesn't seem to agree with you.

Doesn't does it.

Have to say i'm surprised not because it exists but that i haven't been able to find a refrence to it on sciroccocentral. I think i've ben able to find out details on every other part - just not the curiously named soundaktor. Still nothing when i search for impact sound either.
