I solved the "changing" exhaust sound mistery!
It is the regeneration cycle of the DPF that changes the tone of the TDV8,and
It happens about every 500/600 KM .

It must happen on the TDv6 also as every now and again the engine in my car sounds different at start up! Very noticable!

Salve Giovanni!

My car also came with the DPF,even with the cat-back JE system the exhaust note is quite tame on mine too. Confused
Thought about removing the DPF but since it's a quite complex piece of kit I was advized to leave the DPF alone.
Think i'm gonna give John at JE a call to see if they can provide me with a cat bypass to spicen the sound up a bit.


Saluti,
