In my V8V fuse 22 was a 20amp fuse. In the V12V fuse 15 is a 5amp fuse. Given they are both related to the exhaust valves (despite what the manual states) why would the V12V be a lower rating?

Is it definitely fuse 15 in a 2013 V12V?

In my MY13 V12V its fuse 15 and its a 5amp but leave it there. I pulled it initially which gives you the sound but you then don't think to use the sport button which is all wrong as sport setting is perfect. Pulling the fuse is like a default automatic setting, all noise and no go, avoid

I'll eventually get a switch fitted at BR as I did on the V8V. I prefer the option to have a more linear throttle response but with the full fat soundtrack and use the sport button when I feel like a more aggressive throttle response. So for now I'll pull the fuse and get a switch fitted asap.

Thanks for confirming the fuse. I'm sure you're enjoying your V12V as much as I am smile

Sport will be engaged tomorrow. No MTFU jibes for me! Of course I'm still running in so I'll probably be a little slow biggrin

I'm sure Adrian at BR told me not to pussy it but to keep my foot in from new. It's better for the engine apparently. I stand to be corrected, I was quite hung over when I was there last.

Well I kept it below 5000 rpm today. I'll get the first 500 miles on the clock and then gradually up the revs. Probably correct that this isn't needed but it makes me feel better smile
