@Stoopo, Where is the Sound enhancer on the ST-Line X and how do you turn it off?

It only comes on when you go into Sport Mode. As far as I know you can’t adjust it or switch it off. It plays the enhanced sound through the speakers.

Looking at the new car spec they’ve removed it I think. It’s now only on the ST.

The enhancer is on the ST Line X

They are different in that the the former enhances the sound outside and the latter inside.
There is nothing coming through my speakers when in sport mode. I don't believe the ST Line X has any enhancer or the Active noise control.....If it does, it's not very good. :roll:

Probably because it wasn’t a available on the 125 bhp. Only the 155bhp got it. I think even the 155 has lost it on the latest spec.

Mine certainly has it.

The object for me is to have the quietist car possible. (it's lovely travelling in a Roller.. :D ). Enhancing engine noise in the cabin...Why? It's akin to those nut jobs who try to make their cars sound 'Sporty' and end up with a car that sounds crap.
Each to their own, but no thanks. :?

Symposer/ enhancer.... seems the Puma might have one or the other based on trim and/or build date. But how can you tell if you have one or the other, or not. If anyone knows...
where can you look on the Puma to confirm if you have a enhancer, or if you have a symposer?
