« on: 08 March 2009, 21:27 »
well every 1 knows the trouble i had with fittment of the sports cat and d/pipe. Well the cat is f**ked now. Its so rattlie when i rev it and let the revs off. Got gf to rev it whilst i was unda car and cat isnt moving its solid. So i think its either been dropped knocked or its just failed. So its going back to garage tomorrow. Its a week old arggggggh :angry: i dont think the cat is included in millteks warranty is it?
