Number 5: I had a new lamba censor and cat in the shed for MOT as i have a decat. I put my new cat on and standard exhast and still it failes.:wall:

It just says from the front, i dont think its that bad. Its coming from the joint between the manifold and the down pipe

argh bit of a easy fix then lol
sounds good to me few new gaskets i may replace the 1 between the cat and the middle section cos that looks a bit naff too just incase i put it in for it again and it fails again lol

need to take the air box off and look at the condition of the rubber sleeve covering your steering rack. from the description that needs replacing at the least.

welding needs done to the suspension mount

cv boot needs replaced unless drive shaft is fucked then a new shaft needs putting in

also sounds like the rear brakes are either seized or pads are low.
