Don't think so, people usually just unplug them?

You can also set the volume to zero with VCDS I've discovered.

If you have DCC you can go into indervidral and turn it to eco which will shut it up

I have this on my Scirocco. Would be interesting to see if this car be retrofitted to an older model. A friend with a mk2 Leon wants it  :smiley:

Why would you want a sound generator?!??? in my opinion, it makes the MK7 R sound like a Subaru Imprezza!! pointless!!

If you are near Doncaster I'll turn it off for you. I did mine and its good to hear the outside burble.

I also turned off the generator, it really spoiled the sound. So I have my own camper for which I was looking for a generator but I can not determine exactly what size will suit me and what type of generator it will be. It's good that a friend recommended this article to me https://thetoolscout.com/what-size-generator-do-i-need-for-my-camper/ and I was able to solve my problems quickly. Then I also watched video reviews on YouTube to decide on the manufacturer. So I chose Generac and was satisfied.
