A8 trans problem

Tue May 17 05:33:29 PDT 2011

Gol' dang that sounds like it's out of NASCAR!  
I am pondering the idea of removing my second muffler on the A4.  I wonder if it would drone, drown out the stereo and be fatiguing on the highway....

It is cool sounding, but like I said, on the 6 hour drive from SC back home to 
LA (Lower Alabama) it got old quick with iPod ear buds. I did apparently stop at 
the slowest McDonalds in the world on the way back. Ordered quick, but waited 5 
min to pay, gave up. Took off out of the drive through to get back on the 
I-state ASAP in 1st gear (tip-tronic). Guess the sound was intimidating, sent a 
few kids running for cover in the parking lot. The sound does turn people’s 
heads. It would be nice to enable/disable it at will.

Also the previous owner deleted the 2nd muffler, it sounds mean, but
about hour 2 on the interstate with no radio it gets old. You can watch
a little video of the sound it makes here:
