Krzys Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Well I have looked into it, got a price for a catback with twin exits from powerflow but let's just say the missus put a stop to that one:( something to do with Christmas or something I've put the feelers out on the 323f forum but none for sale for the v6 at the moment:( even through they were ten a penny a few months backI've found a good 2nd hand replacement full standard exhaust for £50 from a breakers in Middlesbrough so that will do the job for now, till after mot in MarchIt needs a decent exhaust system, as the standard one is ok but when it comes to the sound it doesent cut the mustardNothing better than the bellow of a V6 with a stanless system on full chat!

Roylewaa Posted December 9, 2013 Author Share Posted December 9, 2013 Thanks mate, few cold mornings have made another problem present itself, although very common on the KFDE engine, noisy HLA'sWas tap tap tappin away like a goodun this morning, till she warmed up a littleA lot of the V6 boys swear by wynns lifter treatment with decent oil so going to give that a try Only on cold starts thankfully, I've heard them clacking away on warm engines aswell so could be worse:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Hopefully that will shut her up on a cold morning, nothing worse than listening to a type writer first thing eh?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roylewaa Posted December 11, 2013 Author Share Posted December 11, 2013 Funnily enough she didn't tap at all this morning and it was mighty cold out thereDid do a 100 mile run yesterday though which might have helpedI spoke to the previous keeper yesterday who said it's always been a little tappy on a cold start in the winter for a few minutes and he did an engine flush a few months ago and used decent oil which helped loads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roylewaa Posted December 11, 2013 Author Share Posted December 11, 2013 Aparently it was only 3 months ago, Oil does still look fairly clean and filter looks recent Might change it again after Christmas for full piece of mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
