Audi TTS Tailpipe "flap" - necessary or not?
Have no idea about the technical name but there is a hinged flap inside the right tailpipe of the dual exhaust system (looking at it from the rear of the car) that is actuated by a vacuum driven rotating wire arm. The little black plastic actuator was knocked off leaving the "flap" inside the tailpipe to rattle and arbitrarily rotate noisely around.
I have not found a new "actuator" and would prefer to just remove the flap and let both exhaust tailpipe operate unconstricted. Will it hurt anything mechanically if I just plug the little vacuum hose and yank out the flap?
