Hi, 3 months ago i had my manifold to downpipe resealed as was blowing and creating a loud noise.
theres now no blowing but 3 months on the noise is still really loud as though theres a hole in the exhaust.
had the exhaust checked out but no holes at all. the noise is loudest on a cold day when starting up and it may be something as small as the manifold having to heat up to seal properly.
the noise is still louder than normal and it seems the power output is struggling now as well. its only a 1.1i but the performance still used to be better. i have done a service bar fuel filter and spark plugs. could this be an issue?? or am i just being sligtly paranoid over my car??
any help or advice would be much appreciated as its far to loud to be normal!!
