    exhaust knocking on rear beam

    Never had a problem with it. The rubber still supports the exhaust but the jubilee clip adds the strength.

    exhaust knocking on rear beam

    It's the centre mount that is the issue as they're very weak. Use a large jubilee clip shaped to fit around the central mount. Then it is simply a case of tightening the jubilee until the exhaust is sufficiently raised.

    vibration/rattle

    Maybe manifold hitting the subframe. Try loosening the top left engine mount and pulling the engine forward. May also be strut tops knocking although you have said you checked those.. Search for 'Strut top washers', plenty of info' in there..

    V6 Airbox on 172 Ph2

    Makes no difference if it's plastic or metal Son. As long as it fits in the bay, the filter fits and the inlet and outlet are correct, you're away.

    Stickers - Yes or No?

    No for me. I've been scarred by a local. He has these fitted to an Iceberg 172 with Gold 172 wheels! Poor.

    How many miles have you done in the last year?

    Done less than 35k in over 3 years so probably not.

    Ive been robbed !

    Is that because they are in denial about it's negligible performance benefits vs cost?

    Quick question

    I've had both. You will end up with Sportlines as the ride on the Apex is unbearable. The rear springs were coilbound on my 172 which meant the ride/handling was vastly compromised. Looked good though but the Sportlines are a vast improvement...

    inner c.v gaitor on a 172

    I concur. Try here though. Nigel is a top Guy. www.cvjoints.co.uk

    How easy is it to service a 182.

    Much easier if you remove the fuel rail guard then get a claw in.

    new mods and my rolling road :)

    I'm guessing it's a second joint allowing removal of the cat' matrix but not the whole cat' as it's a nightmare to fit. Very good idea. It's Bought by the way.

    Clean and Lowered

    My Apex rears were coilbound at the rear. Not good for the ride. They look great though.

    Lack of service history may invalidate your warranty.
