How do you program this?

Here is how to program the Cargraphic for startup in either OEM or in Open mode:

Quote:

The start mode can be freely programmed as required. Last state: Press the button for "Sport mode" 5 times within 5 seconds.

Other modes: Press the button for the mode you want to program as the start mode for about ten seconds.

The valves open and close 5 times to confirm the successful programming of the start mode.

Finally drove with the top up today and I kept fiddling with the key fob because it was so quiet.

I drove for like 80 miles thinking it was broken.

Then I tried turning it back off and heard how quiet “off” really was. I was so used to the sound with the top down….

I feel bad for those of you with roofs.
I feel bad for me when I have a roof…🤣

That’s why a sunroof is so important to me, so I can tilt it and hear the exhaust so much more!

It didn't for me. I just ensure the valve is in OEM mode when I turn the car off if I care about quieter start up.

I installed mine and at the next start up received the "reduced power, ok to drive get to a workshop" message. Has anyone else gotten this message and if so how did you fix it?
Also I can't shut the valves using the fob or the homelink. Any help is appreciated.

As for the valves not actuating, if you have sport exhaust it can seem like it isnt working from inside the car. I'd be sure to do a visual inspection with PSE off (if you have it) and vales open on the fob. Looking in the tips you can see if they are open or closed for certain. If they are not working it sounds like an issue with the module.
