 :cry:this will make you weep even more, as I had the same problem and awesome gti told me that not only does it lower performance but it will also damage your engine, so best check out that forge link and upgrade asap

Oh Dear :(


As I mentioned earlier in the thread the noise was only really audible while driving with the windows down, although now intermittantly it is becoming very easy to hear inside the car when changing gear or letting off the accelerator. The noise now sounds a lot more tin'y and rattly, it sounds like its doing something to the exhaust at the front of the car when it happens :(

Will deffinately have to take this to the garage to sort out.
