dont have any pics. but i snapped my exaust a while back so bought the side exit cheap off someone over on ed38.
it was built for a mk3 estate so didnt fit great. looked ok and sounded alright. but it didnt look right from behind missing an exhaust. plus it would catch on the smallest bump in the road. i'll ask my friend and see if hes got any pics.

Would look a lot better coming out the sill

Title: Re: mk3 golf with side exit?
Post by: clancy on 10 February 2012, 13:35

that is probably the worst mk3 that could have it lol. i would of said 3 doors are the only ones that could pull it off, and through the sill too

Post by: sychosis on 10 February 2012, 13:54

It did have a sill in later stage

as promised heres the pic. where the broom handle is is where the middle box was but i hacked that off tou use on my new exhaust. that estate is probs the car that the exhaust is from. and it used to vibrate on the sill like crazy which is another reason why i got rid of it!

as said above start your own thread to get more replies/help
but try your crank sensor common fault and could cause the symptoms your car is showing. Also -23 isn't good for any car lol
