An actuator in the exhaust system, as fitted to the first SQ5 TDI, gives the V6 a sonorous sound. The shortened intake air paths help to build up boost pressure quickly. This offers the advantage since exhaust gas cleaning responds more quickly. Two SCR catalytic converters interact: the exhaust gas aftertreatment.
