@BruBelg So do you think that unplugging the factory Subwoofer and adding another sub and a dsp will stop the “fake engine noise” when upgrading audio?

the fake noise is programmed into the meridian digital sound processor so it won’t go away if you use any factory source through pivi.

i had mine turned off remotely. jlractive mailed me their laptop, remotely logged in and 10 mins i was done.

if you are in the states or UK it’s an easy fix

Could you use this to your benefit? Can a body shop open a rear door and mess with the motor/ window positioning so it still closes but the motor thinks the window still has some “travel” left?

FWIW when I got my audio upgraded, the shop fully disabled the OEM subwoofer and installed a custom sub in the trunk as the solution.

I only got to enjoy the upgraded audio for 2 days until some idiot totalled the rig in the rain (!!) but that’s another story for another day.

Hello
just to be clear on my set up, I do have the DSP + SW Amp and Additional SW... (and the noise, unless the SW is unplugged...)
the original SW is still connected to the car AMP
