Eternal silencer
« on: 17 May 2011, 09:12:17 »

I recently fitted a rear box, on my TD, purchased on line from Eternal which are well spoken of here. Unfortunately either the front or rear mounting bars appear to have been welded in the incorrect position, such that when fitted, with a new mounting kit, the bars rattle against the chassis or car mounted bars. I have had it off twice to bend the bars to improve the mounting. Not completely satisfactorily as it still rattles occasionally, so I will be replacing it again with another make.

To be fair to Eternal, they have agreed to refund the purchase price ( only about £30), but I would have preferred a replacement so that I could send this back for inspection. :(

To be honest, you can get that with any exhaust ;)

fitted an Eternal exhaust to father T's 2.2 a couple of weeks ago, fitted better than the GM one! (was one of the later poor GM versions)

I guess its the luck of the draw, probably another Eternal would fit OK, but I am not going to take the chance. I've just been on a run with this one and it rattles like mad despite my efforts. It will have to be replaced. :(
