Ranger Raptor - Exhaust noise through speakers?

[Critical Habitat]

Does anyone know if they port fake exhaust noise through speakers on the "baby" Raptor like on the adult F-150 Raptor?

In one of the videos the reviewer mentioned that there was simulated exhaust sound.

Im gonna guess they do. My ford fusion sport twin turbo has it. Drives me nuts , its slightly off from the engine shifting.

That is kinda lame IMO. Wonder if it can be disabled with Forscan?

Yes, it can be disabled on Forscan. I used Livnitup's FORScan spreadsheet as a reference to disable mine https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/2021-f-150-forscan-list-database-spreadsheet.1578/

Makes for a quieter interior.

No the Ranger Raptor has no fake noises through the speakers.

Got my Ranger Raptor Friday and drove it 170 miles Saturday, half the way we had no radio because we (my wife and I) were getting used to navigating the computer. And I can assure that all the motor noise your going to hear is from the motor, 100% !

I’m happy with my Raptor also, but just because the radio was off does not mean fake sound was not being piped in. I have no clue what the Raptor is doing, but on another car of mine the radio had no bearing at all. I was able to turn the fake sound off via ODB2. on the other car.

If the speakers are off, what creates the sound waves besides the engine?

The speakers aren't off. The audio system is much more than just a radio and media player these days. The whole thing is controlled by the various modules that interface together to provide sound for things like door and warning chimes, turn signal indicators, and yes, fake engine noise, if equipped.

Turning the radio off does only that - just turns the radio off. The rest of the audio system is still fully on.

So FORScan should give us the answer we're looking for, either way.

Has anyone got more info on this now that more trucks are delivered? Is the sound real or just fake engine noise through the speakers?

 

[moproblems]

I have an external exhaust valve controller on top of the factory system, so even in quiet mode the valves can be forced 100% open. There's no fake engine noise from Quiet to Baja.
