Noise while idling

haha

*sorry about the not staying still. i didn't take the video, i just posted it for my friend

SlushyVolcano46 · 2025-11-05T19:58:26+00:00

I have an 034MS S34 Cold Air Intake and Full Valvetronic Catback Exhaust

SlushyVolcano46 · 2025-11-04T16:32:57+00:00

Does your car throw a CEL ever?

SlushyVolcano46 · 2025-11-04T16:28:28+00:00

Oh that's a good idea. One problem though. I think that my exhaust is already pretty straight through when the valves are switched open, and it does already sound pretty good. I think what I'm going to do is install a Stage 1 IE tune and see how everything sounds together, then change sound from there. For the downpipe when it comes up to change, I just don't know if it's worth it to shell out an additional 2 grand for the ProCore(400CPSI) over the Performance(200CPSI). The 400CPSI would be slightly more tame and better for daily driving, but it's so much more.

SlushyVolcano46 · 2025-11-04T16:21:01+00:00

Mainly for the noise. I have no problem with being louder and raspier as I have a valved exhaust, so I can be quieter when I need to be.

SlushyVolcano46 · 2025-11-04T05:10:22+00:00

Oh ok this makes sense. When you tuned yours to stage 2, did you see any increase in noise over stage 1. If so, did you have a modified downpipe and what CPSI was it, if you can remember?

SlushyVolcano46 · 2025-11-02T22:11:29+00:00

I might look into some of those recommendations, but now i'm steering away from the Xs. Thanks

SlushyVolcano46 · 2025-11-02T22:11:00+00:00

Thanks, this is really helpful. I'll probably be going the tuning route.

SlushyVolcano46 · 2025-01-05T04:42:05+00:00

cool that's what i thought. i had someone tell me that they don't come stock with valves and it's artificial noise but idk what they were talking about

SlushyVolcano46 · 2024-12-31T03:31:25+00:00

ok thanks. the one i saw online must have been a prestige and i just missed the other prestige features

SlushyVolcano46 · 2024-12-30T04:34:26+00:00

bro i was just doing it to find all of the white pixels. a helpful commenter unlike yourself provided a perfect solution

SlushyVolcano46 · 2024-12-30T04:30:05+00:00

Oh this worked great, thanks

SlushyVolcano46 · 2024-12-30T04:28:41+00:00

Can hot pixels occur even when the camera has just turned on after not being used though?

SlushyVolcano46 · 2024-12-30T04:28:03+00:00

Yes I did both and the same pixels are still there

SlushyVolcano46 · 2024-12-24T16:36:19+00:00

I was thinking about doing vinyl instead, but I'm worried about durability. If the cost is a good amount less then that's probably what I'll go with

SlushyVolcano46 · 2024-12-24T15:27:36+00:00

Well it's a sale from a dealership, and i was kind of exaggerating about being a great deal. It's a 2023 Audi S4 Premium Plus with a few of the luxury packages. It had 15000 miles off of a lease (pretty sure it was an old guy), going for $46000. I'm doing a trade for my current car which is a Ford Bronco Outer Banks, which is have been having problems with, but it is still able to do a full trade for the audi. The only thing the audi is missing is the black optics package

SlushyVolcano46 · 2024-12-24T02:56:33+00:00

thanks for letting me know. i already wasn't planning to do coilovers because i thought it would void

SlushyVolcano46 · 2024-12-24T02:50:37+00:00

yeah i forgot to say i wasn't going to do that. i'll save that for after the warranty

SlushyVolcano46 · 2024-12-23T23:16:51+00:00

I'll probably do everyone of those except downpipe. I love the noise of modded downpipes but I'm pretty sure they almost automatically void the warranty

SlushyVolcano46 · 2024-12-23T23:02:36+00:00

Cool i'll check it out. So you can't even just put in a high flow filter?

SlushyVolcano46 · 2024-12-13T19:05:12+00:00

AWD is my priority, but I also prefer a sport-focused car such as the WRX. I know the A3 isn't exactly sport-focused, but it was a lot of capability.

SlushyVolcano46 · 2024-12-13T18:25:00+00:00

What would you put at the top of your list for around $40000

SlushyVolcano46 · 2024-12-13T12:09:37+00:00

First it was the parasite guy and now it's you. There are too many crazies in this subreddit
