Exhaust question
« on: 29 October 2009, 12:35 »
My 8v sounds like a bloody beetle at the moment,

I think the exhaust is blowing from the front end. Does anybody have a diagram of the entire exhaust system from the manifold to the back box?

Its very comment for them to leak around the manifold and down pipe.

Mine has ever since i have owned it, but too much bother to worry about.

Mine does that as well, but never really investigated it, sounds like it's from the manifold.   :huh:
