is the soundaktor present on all models and if it is switchable, which menu is this in?  cheers.

Yes all performance Golf Mk7.x's have it.

If you want an easy fix, select individual mode, change the engine noise in there.

Later cars have a volume slider, earlier ones, quietest is "eco".

Its still on a bit but barely.

Completely off is achieved by disconnecting the thing or using VCDS/OBD11 etc to disable it
Current: Mk8 GTI DSG, Adelaides, DCC, HUD, HK, Winter Pack, Rear Camera.. Aka "HMS Weasel"

Gone: 2017 Mk7.5 GTD,manual, NavPro
Gone: 2014 Mk7 GTD, manual, NavPro, DCC

I have a 2014 GTI.

It has individual drive modes but sound wasn’t a option on my model.

I had my garage (indi vw specialist) un plug it when they last had it in for service. Otherwise you have to code it out with a OB11 or similar tool.
