📋 About This Mod
THIS MOD DOES NOT ADD ANYTHING TO THE GAME, IT JUST USES THE VANILLA SOUNDS ON DIFFERENT CARS
I never liked how Rockstar managed car sounds in this game, they used lots of diesel engine sounds for cars that just don't have a diesel option in real life, especially in the U. S. where the great majority of cars are petrol powered. I've changed the sound of quite some cars, especially SUVs, I don't have a full list but I'm sure you'll notice the difference (Maybe I'll make one in the future)
- Installation is easy and much faster than before.
- No need to add new sound files, installation is just one file
- Changed more car sounds and tweaked existing ones
- Now pretty much every car sounds as it should
Known "issue"
- Police sedans have the FBI siren sound
- Police calls out some modifed sedans as "SUVs"
V2. 5 changelog
- Used sounds from DLC cars such as the Windsor and the new Schafter

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a single file, just drop it into your mods folder or use a mod manager like OpenIV to replace the appropriate file.
- If you're on a newer game version, test the mod after installation—if sounds are missing, you may need to update the mod or revert.
- Make a backup of the original file before replacing, so you can easily revert if you don't like the changes.
