Been having trouble blowing like anything and is really annoying
Garage said it 'probably' needs a new backbox (was a full scorpion grp A system i believe)... Been getting worse all week still not convinced exactly what problem is...
Smell from exhaust fairly petrolly now too, so i was thinking might be the cat on way out?
Any ideas? or ideas how i can find out without spending loads money on stuff...!

Where was the leak? Have you checked the gaskets throughout the system?
