Missing Air intake flap

[glendog74]

but that is probably because as you press the button, the throttle adjusts and if your foot stays still you will be pulling it to higher revs hence the engine will start to get noisier

Probably... :birdman:

I too am ...flapless ! Since day 1, so i only know one noise ...

FLAPS :whistle: Hmmmmm

[shimmy]

got more flaps than i know what to do with :thumbs:

[Nords]

Sport button on CSL i believe just allows the flap to open earlier in the rev range and adjusts the throttle sensitivity

BUT Glendogs car apparently also gets louder :bigcry::bigcry:WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

It does get noisier, it makes the noise at 4 to 5K that it would at 7K without the button. To explain what I mean, leave the sport button off and rev the car out in third. Around 7K (ish) the noise will change significantly as the flap opens. With sport on, it makes this louder noise, even at very low revs if you put your foot right down...

I have 65% flap.

Well, as of today I'm no longer "Flap Less" :thumbs: Thanx to Nathan my CSL has the original intake flap back in place. Can I check if it opens with the car static ? Engine On, SPORTS button On and rev to 4000 rpm ? What's the right way to do this ?

Just drive it, hold at 4500rpm with sport off, hit sport button and note will change immediately.

OK, thanx but this kind of thing happened when I was running without the flap. Driving along, press SPORTS button and it was as if a turbo came on :thumbs:. Change of engine note plus extra surge :smt017

Engine running, get someone to full throttle, you will see the flap open and the noise changes dramatically:thumbs:, now stop being a fanny and just drive the fecking thing:gayfight:
