Which button controls the active exhaust? One button on the right says tour/sport? I keep it on tour> The ecs button, im not sure it works, bc nothing happens or lights up when i press it( the circle button). Sometimes when i crank my car the tour sport lights up on the bottom of the dash and sometimes it doesnt come on. Sometimes when i am going down the road it lights up in the lower bottom left, tour sport at the same time then a few mins later goes away? I know its not a true dual exhaust, but almost nothing comes out the passenger side.

Almost nothing comes out the passenger side on all them. Except mine for some reason. I have the TT Active Exhaust catback on my car. I have the valve wired open. ALmost all the flow come out my passenger side. No one can figure out why.

ECS green light is on the right hand side, should say tour from the start up unless you press it then it goes to sport.

Active exhaust is always in sport mode and has no light unless you press button then in center of tach and speedo it shows a green muffler with word tour.

idle you dont have much pressure and exhaust like anything else will go with the path of least resistance, if you rev it a little and have someone hold a piece of paper in front of the other you will see it blows out. When I clean the tips I spray wheel cleaner up inside a little to get the carbon off and then rev to blow it out and i get spatter patterns on the drive from both tips.

sometimes the tour and sport in green in the bottom left hand corner are either both on or both off. neverone or the other. sometimes they light up, sometimes they dont? how woud you fix that. because nothing happens when i hit the circle button with ECS on it

It probably means a problem with the ECS itself not just the lights. Other than that I dont know what you can do to fix it besides taking it in to a shop

ecs issue might be due to bad motors (whatever you want to call them) I know on mine the previous owner had 2 shocks and 2 motors replaced and it was a couple grand.
