This morning i got a letter from the council saying someone in my street had complained about the noise of my car, and me revving my car in the middle of the day.

Just wondered if anyone else had had this problem before.

had a polite request from a neighbour when i first got my exhaust (it's very loud) which is fair enough. I just said i would be as quiet as possible coming and going. Reporting you to the council is a bit harsh tbh !

My neigbours down my grandma's street are exactlly the same.. when i had my duel system on she came out and gave me abuse.. screaming and shouting.. i was like 'wtf'. Then my grandma of all people who is very old fashioned.. dosent swear etc came out the house and let hell loose at her. She just shut up and admitted defeat. Never had a complaint since. My grandma basiclly told this women how shit her life was...

1. Your husbands an alcoholic
2. Your that shit of a mother that your own daughter dosent want to see you
3. Your son is gay
4. Get a job

Made me laugh my arse off.

Is she in the Catherine Tate show? :D:D:D

One of my neighbours doesn't moan about the noise of the car, only the quantity of them. When the ZS turned up, you could see him going a shade of white. "I am looking after it for 10 months while my friend is in Australia" I told him. You never know, he may decide to stay in Australia permanently! ;)

id just go down ur road makin as much noise as possible, if ur not meaning to make noise and they complain, might as well do it on purpose and get some pleasure from it.

The police can do you for excessive noise coming from your exhaust. There are noise limits. Have a look at them. These limits are somewhat severly reduced after 11pm.

Tracks, circuits, etc... usually give a 100dB noise limit on exhausts.

Easty... The last thing you want is to turn up to a track day and find that your car is too loud. Some circuits differ but the majority I've been to, their cut off is 100db.

seery2006... It doesn't only have to be after 11pm. There are general road rules/regulations that can give maximum db's off exhausts, etc... It's just that after 11pm is when these regulations are more in force.

yeh i think my car would struggle to meet these regulations if it was tested.
