Hi all,

The 'sound actuator' was standard in the mk6 and from my experience it just made a faint 'grunty' noise in the cabin, not outside. was quite pleasant really.
New for the mk7 in certain markets, is the 'sport and sound package' (as its called in Ireland).

The product description is woeful; ECO function, Outside sound, Front shock absorbtion, Rear stabilizer, rear sports shock absorbtion

Further enquiries provided this;

·         The Sport & Sound package adds 16” front and rear disc brakes in Tornado Red.

·         The shock absorption and stabilizers are one step more sporty than the standard GTD (the reservoir tube specification is related to this) Reservoir tube 55mm, Rear stabilizer 21.7 x 3.0

·         One selection of the driving profile is the ECO-mode, to save energy/ fuel (advice and settings such as less acceleration, climatisation and others)

It also includes 18" Nogaro's (as not standard in Ireland :angry:) AND 'outside sound' as this link post by mjh_056 perfectly demonstrates!

and this link shows what they look like;

This is the colour combo ive been considering, just a bit unsure about the exhaust sound!! Bit tacky?
