I always avoided V4 mode in my 2019 GS M7. It wasn’t brutal but there was a definite thump going in and out of V4 mode. On my 2025 Eray it’s very subtle and easy to miss. I stopped thinking about it after the first few minutes of ownership. That’s just my two cents.

I have an aftermarket intake manifold, and it definitely makes a difference as far as noise goes.

Do you think it's ok to use v4 on the highway for mileage reasons without any future damage ? I also have a Eray
