Exhaust noise from the front of the car with V5
Hey everyone
I've had my V5 tune for about a week now. Normal driving everything sounds normal. Under heavy acceleration there is a exhaust noise coming from the front of the car. Is this normal?

What kind of exhaust noise?
Leak noise?
or AMG noise?
For reference, the engine is in the front of your car

You know that rattle type noise the old M3's make on hard acceleration? That's what mine is doing. The sound is coming closer to the front then rear.

Watch some youtube videos on exhaust leaks and compare the sound. If that's what it sounds like check the connections throughout the exhaust.
The weird part is the only heard on heavy acceleration. Exhaust leaks are easier to hear at lower rpm because up high the whole car is loud.
Any CELs? Another potential is the lifters.
