I seem to recall some1 saying about a rattle that they had on the manifold to centre pipe join. Something to do with the springs? Anybody know what i mean? What was the cure? :y: cheers chaps

i got my mechanic friend to have a look over the pit and he said that the exhaust clears everything so it must be the joint. so its just a case of playing with the tension on that bolt?
