Do all Mk6 GTIs have the fake sound?

Yes. Mines a 35. Unplugged now and car is much quieter, at the moment i prefer it, doesnt sound as good as my ED30  did though, that seemed to have the balance about right. As far as i know the ed30 did not have a soundaktor.

Only GTi's with DSG fitted. Manuals don't need it.   :cool:

Try driving faster, it will go away.  You may be driving it like a DSG owner. :cool:
