Active Sound?
Anybody know whether the x4 M40 has Active Sound? Engine/exhaust sound piped through the stereo system?
Thanks.

So you have three cars with electronic/stereo assist or created exhaust and engine sounds. You do not mind this?
I find this a bit hard to get my head around.

I have never minded the enhanced sound in any of my BMW's. I honestly don't even know if the M40i has it or not because the car sounds so amazing and loud from the outside. Here's an article I found explaining how the sound enhancement works.

I don`t know what M Performance has done to M40i - but most owners are happy.
I believe my Klappen, with two remotely controlled valves - although illegal - is the way to go. Besides it has very nice end-tubes. I once testdrove a Citroen Ami 6 (34 bhp) with a sound enhancement system on Lotus Engineering's test track. You could choose Porsche, Ferrari and US V-8 engine sound. It was a, of course, a bit over the top.... |

Are you serious?? They are called quarter mile runs and they're a great thing to have on the forums. I know most of the members here appreciate the time and effort it goes into posting those videos. You posting the same picture over and over and going on and on about your exhaust system is something completely different. It's great that you participate on the forums but I have to agree with FSociety. It seams that a lot of the threads here no matter what the topic always end up with you post the same picture of your car with an explanation about your exhaust system. At least put some new photos up.
