Sorry to jump in but i do understand about the flex needed in the exhaust, obviously i had my join cut and my cat now slides over the manifold with a clamp but there is still good flex... I tried gaskets and even welding but in the end a new cat and a new join and 6 months later its still going...

Is it blowing from a join in the exhaust then ? i.e from the front of the de-cat or rear of it ? that joint is pants on the manifold did the guy chop yours off ?? look under the car and see what type of join you got as my cat slides over the top of the manifold with a hefty clamp and has been...

Same thing happend to me funny enough with 39,000 on the clock, Had to keep getting under the car to tighten up the bolts to the manifold and cat, In the end i got a new cat and touch wood has been going strong for the last 6 months with 43,000 on the clock, i did get the crappy manifold join...

Happened to me.. Was under the car every week tightening up the bolts to no avail, Its such a crappy designed join. I replaced my cat and got the center section cut out and replaced it with a straight through pipe, Cost £270 all in on my 182. I do feel for you though as its the most horrid sound...

Where is it blowing from ? Cat / Back box ?? Had mine blow at the cat as the join was pure wa*k so got a new cat and took out the centre silencer and replaced it with a straight through pipe. All in on my 182 including parts and labour came to £270 Obviously depends on where yours is blowing...

THX for the input chaps... Will remove the cover later to see if i can get my hand in... And i thought having big hands was a good thing lol

OMG is it me or is it a reet fecker to change the drivers side bulb !.. Bought the bulbs from Halfrauds for a remarkable £1.59 (501's) popped the bonnet tucked my head down to realise they aint no fecking room to slip my hand in... Is it easier to undo the headlight ?? Would get the GF to do it...
