Exhaust parp inconsistency

Hi there, i recently bought a 3 door 2008 (facelift) A3 2.0 tfsi DSG Quattro. it has the s-line kit with s-line exhaust (not sure if that is just exhaust tips)

When i was buying it i also drove a 2009 sportback DSG with the same engine, no quattro.

There was a much more noticeable exhaust Parp from the sportback compared to the car i bought, infact there is pretty much no parp at all on mine.

does anyone know why this is? was mine on the pre-facelift exhaust still and they tuned things a little for the newer 2009 car?

Just annoys me, and i wonder if there's a fix for this

Thanks

Does it sound the same in sport?

Hi Lewis. Yeah it's the same. The sound doesn't change from drive to sport.
