Haha Cheeeeeky!

Had the exhaust tips off today and a full clean up on them! Amazing the difference.

So glad i found this thread! Managed to get mine off straight away so thanks guys! Top posts!

So does this apply for manual also or just auto?

My friend has just asked me the same thing as he has manual does this still apply?

Just one other quick thing am i ok to put it into dynamic more or less straight away or am i better waiting 10mins or so from a cold start?

Just tried that great explanation thanks for your help guys :)

Do you have to click through every mode on drive select to get it back to dynamic? or is just pressing the drive select button quickly once enough as obviously dynamic comes up first as this is the mode it was originally in.
