Title: Blowing exhaust
Post by: Andy B on 24 February 2013, 12:20:39

I listened to the car the other day when SWMBO was driving it ...... sounds to be blowing. Just been in it now & I could smell fumes from the driver's seat (door open)
Not been under it yet, but as the exhaust is stainless, I suspect it'll be the down pipe somewhere near the two 2 bolt flanges. Too cold to be mauling about under it today though.  :(
