AWE Exhaust problem
Purchased a 17’ C63s coupe that came with a AWE switchback exhaust.
Currently dealing with the valves being open in comfort and sport but when put into Sport+ and Race mode, the valves would turn shut.
I’d have to press the exhaust button inside the car while in Sport+ or Race into the “closed” or “quiet” setting for it to get loud. Doing so, getting over a specific RPM range I’d feel like the car would get quieter too
So pretty much it’s doing the exact opposite, is there something that I can do to fix this? Do I have to somehow change the orientation of the valves before reinstalling the actuators to get it to work properly?
any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I am not sure if you have the same issue as mine but it turns out the valve actuators that comes with AWE doesn't work with the OEM exhaust button. So you have two choices. Either switch all three valve actuators back to OEM ones (this way you can again use the OEM exhaust button) or use the remote FOB that comes with the exhaust.
