Exhaust flap control for standard exhaust flap
With FlapControl, you can open and close your vehicle's standard exhaust flap manually whenever you want.
It is controlled via the supplied radio remote control.
No intervention in the vehicle system, e.g. in the CAN bus, is necessary with our control unit.
Powerful engine sound from the start or quiet exhaust on the highway - you can decide for yourself with this flap control.
An exhaust flap system is created in a few simple steps. If the sports exhaust is too loud for you in certain situations,
simply close the flap with the remote control. These are just a few examples and there are many more.
The exhaust flap installed in the vehicle is controlled ex works by the vehicle's engine control unit.
When the flap is opened and closed depends on many factors. The selection of the drive program (Comfort or Sport),
but also speed, engine speed, gear, temperature, etc. determine the control of the exhaust flap.
Vehicle manufacturers equip cars with exhaust flaps to control the sound, volume and exhaust gas flow.
The switches installed by the vehicle manufacturer for driving programs or buttons for exhaust flaps are never permanently 100% open or closed,
but are constantly checked and controlled via the vehicle parameters.
This is where our flap control comes in, which has two or three buttons depending on the variant and controls the respective status 100%.
The small auxiliary control unit can be installed inside or outside the vehicle. The diagnostic capability remains fully intact, no engine indicator light.
Please also refer to our FAQ on the subject of applications, sound and volume.
The topic is very extensive and we will be happy to advise you if you have any further Questions.
Modes
OPEN (sport mode)
With the OPEN function, the exhaust flap is 100% open. I.e. at all times and until you trigger a change by remote control.
Regardless of engine speed or speed. The vehicle signal that controls the exhaust flap has no effect in this mode.
The vehicle-side buttons for driving modes are retained except for the control of the exhaust flap.
SERIES (series mode)
In SERIES mode, the vehicle behaves, as the name suggests, like a standard vehicle without any modifications.
The flap control is equally invisible, as if it had not been installed. The vehicle controls all systems, including the exhaust flap, as before the flap control system was installed.
CLOSE (comfort mode)
The CLOSE function closes the exhaust flap 100% until you set another function.
Closing the exhaust flap reduces noise emissions.
In this mode, engine speed, engine load or similar factors have no influence on the position of the exhaust flap.
Please note that this may cause permanent damage to the Vehicle.
Memory function
With the memory function, the flap control unit remembers the mode that was last set.
If the vehicle is then restarted after being parked, the last set mode is reactivated.
