Hi All.
So I took Mario out today, he's not been out in a week and he was seemingly fine last weekend & weekend before going up & down to Nottinghamshire.
But, he sounds completely different and a bit rough today. It's not the engine running poorly. Every so often I did hear a little rattle like something was loose. He's also now a lot louder.
It's towards the front of the car, so I think part of the issue is a pipe hole before the main silencer or a disconnection between sections.
Is there a known common fault or weak point on the Stilo for exhausts?. He's a 54 plate 1.6 Active with about 53k on the clock.
How difficult are exhaust parts to replace? Do you need a ramp? I'm lucky that I get access to oxy/acl sets via work, I'm feeling a bit adventurous and I'm about to be briefly skint swapping to a new job. So If this would be something fairly simple, I might be tempted to have a go.
