NIKH25 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Just watched the video, that does not sound or look good at all, watch some of the other vids on here or search youtube to see what it should be like.Don't really know what could be the problem but start with the service and then have a look at the cat.

fridazadilak Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share Posted January 26, 2013 Haha...I'm an Android fan...those overpriced Apple products suck! Hehe! Anyway...oil level was low so I topped it up and just blasted to redline in 3rd. The weather isn't great so don't fancy a top speed check!I'll report back!

fridazadilak Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share Posted February 2, 2013 Right...haven't managed to do the service yet but my mate from Honda just text saying the parts are there. My exhaust was sounding horrible on Wed night, rattling like a mofo. Just blasted up to Bristol and when I got on the open road...erm...closed track...I was stuck behind another car so sat at 6k for about 30 secs before overtaking. As I put my foot down it got to about 7k and then something shot through the exhaust, felt like a cork had popped out the tailpipe. The revs climbed a lot faster and more freely...and when I looked in my mirror there was a massive cloud of smoke covering the cars behind! I think the cat was collapsed and was restricting flow...and an Italian tune up caused it to sh!t it's guts out!I also topped the oil up and it now does this quite easily:It's not in great health but it's better than it was.

fridazadilak Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share Posted February 2, 2013 P.s. That photo was in 4th. I've got my MoT in a couple of weeks but it shouldn't be a problem.Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marko Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 i was actually thinking then my car goes past the 120 quite quickliy if i rev up to between 8200-8600 in evry gear but if i say only get to 7k in third then 4th will become very slow and it will seem to strgle to go past 100, so basically just keep your foot planted till you hear that limiter tap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
