Hip_Spasm,
Sounds like a right sh*tter :(
I thought everyone was raving about how much better they were than all the other exhausts, but I guess not.
I hope you get it sorted sharpish, not a nice feeling I guess towards your car.
I'm sure Andy and Ben will help if they can.
I had a B&M short shift on my 182, and loved it.
I did Santa Pod a couple of times and covered 25,000 miles with it no problems.

I drive mine 120miles a day at the moment, did 220 miles yesterday because of the maidenhead meet.
I love it, it makes me grin every time I drive it.
As for the 2.2 v 2.0Turbo, dont write off the 2.2 just coz it doesnt have a...
Just picked up a bargain on an ITG Maxogen.
6months old, done about 2000miles.
Anyway, do I need to clean it etc before fitting?
It all looks complete, just dont have the instructions! :oops:
Push it in as you wind it omar.
Basically its a constantly adjusting mechanism to ensure the pads always receieve the same pressure.
Try removing the cap from the brake fluid resevoir to ease the pressue at the same time as winding back in. (Its under the engine cover, back left as you...
