    Horn

    My horn tone and volume have changed. Now have a really quiet and ineffective tone and volume. What can I do to rectify this?
    Thanks

    Does the car have two horns - a high note horn and a low note horn. If so, only one may be working.

    speaking of horns , a couple of months ago I saw an add on fb I think showing these horns for sale which were suitable for diesel locomotives.....bloody bloody loud.

    Did anyone else see them for sale there?

    The mud wasps built a Mud nest in my S3 horn.
    Once cleaned out worked really well.

    You haven't got water in it, easy to do pressure washing or driving through water. Take it off & rotate it so water runs out the snail.

    If the above comments don't provide the solution......there is a adjustment screw on most horns.
    This changes the point gap and can be used to get the best noise level.
