lame horn strategy?
Hello, I think that one of the lamest features of the f type is the horn. The exhaust note is brilliant and competes with Lamborghini but the horn is about on par with a SmartCar.
Have you done anything about the lame effin horn on your f type? For lock/unlock the horn should prob be replaced by a beep/double-beep from a viper alarm or similar. However, for manual horn honking in traffic have you simply accepted the fact that your horn sounds like a vagina or have you taken measures to improve the overall sound and presence of your horn?

There certainly are... I finally used the Ignore feature, so I don't see anymore of his posts. Unfortunately, the feature doesn't hide thread titles on the Thread listing page, so I still have to mentally sort through and skip over the lame subject matter.

But where is it?
I just failed my MOT on the F-Type S because the horn is not working. This I suspect might be a simple fix with a bad connection at the horn end, but can anyone tell me where it is? (no, I can't sound it and trace it - I tried that lol)
If anyone can let me know I would be v. grateful. I have looked through the grills and cant see them, I have taken three of the engine compartment covers off and they are not under them. It's a mystery to me?
Help!
Cheers

Ah! First World problems. Who cares? If it makes a noise, it's doing what it's designed to do.
Be thankful you don't drive a Mercedes. I'm sure the horn on my A45 AMG goes via the Canbus because there is a noticeable and measureable delay. You hit the button, the message travels to the processor which goes into deep thought and then fires up the horn.
By this time, the hazard is gone (or has hit you.) It's impossible to do a 'pip pip' to, for example, thank a tractor driver for pulling over to let you pass. You strike the horn button twice and nothing happens, so you press harder and let out a loud blast, which is mistaken as and angry response. I leave well alone unless required for imminent danger.
