Skoda Performance Stuff

I'd like to say first, wow, like the new look (I've not been here for a while ).

Second, my car is making a strange noise, having it checked today, i think its the exhaust system and depending on where it is in the system i'm looking at replacing the end section with Skoda Performance part (about £200). I'm just asking has anyone had this fitted at all and what does it sound like?

Cheers

Matt

P.S. I hope its just the exhaust system!!!

Not had it fitted, but would be interested to find out your impressions if you have it fitted!

£200 seems alot for "an end piece" but by all means let us know what you think if you do have it fitted and show us some piccies.

Erm, i went in to have this little problem checked out, turns out that the noise wasn't my exhaust blowin but one of the cam belt tensioners had broken up!!!! Eeek, my car has ony done 36000 miles, not quite sure what has happened there!! And you know what was worse, my warranty I got when I bought it run out 20 days before!!!!!!!!!

Well, I gotta good deal, two new cambelts, new roller and two new tensioners, car has been off the road for about week.

What I didn't tell them was I'd been doin 110+mph not long before I noticed the noise!!!!

Matt
