Horn sounds "weak"

[hail7783]

I had some work done on my car and now the horn sounds different, more wussy.

Any ideas? I've never heard of this. So any suggestions?

Thanks...

Mine is the same - there is a dual horn system with a low toned one and a higher pitched one. My lower one went out so now mine sounds like a terribly high pitched VW Beetle horn... I did hear that you have to remove the front bumper to replace either horn too.

[anthony911]

yes you have to remove te front bumpers on the c5 a6 in order to change either ur upper or lower pitch horns.
my upper horn is dead and i didn't feel like changing it its more time consuming to take out the bumper than anything so i just let it be.

[hail7783]

Bummer... I was in an accident a little while ago and that's probably the culprit. Didn't think to have it checked while my bumper and front end was being repaired. :-/
Could've had it done then

[anthony911]

you never know your horn is weak until you actually use it. I live in Montreal I don't use my horn that much but I was in Manhatten on Friday and using a horn there is like using a turn signal..it's just common hehe
