Elantra noise complaints

2022-11-15 00:01:29.84984+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Gotta admit I've got a little schadenfreude here: Cop Nails Unmodified 2022 Hyundai Elantra N for Loud Exhaust. Dude was in "track mode", got a noise citation, the Smog Referee tested the car in track mode, now there's a whole legal struggle over whether that's the right mode to test the car in, it's not the mode the car starts in, but it'd cost about $4,000 to somehow remove that mode.

Since it isn't the mode the car starts in, but is the loud mode, I'm gonna side with the police officer on this one...
