Not a Vauxhall I'm afraid

Ford Fiesta - 03 plate.

The exhaust sounds as though its blowing - not serious but noticeable.

The back-box has been replaced twice for a brand new item , after her being told the baffles had gone . The centre section has also been replaced , but still the noise is there !

When I put my hand over the exhaust the fumes are hitting my hand obviously but its intermittent if you understand ?

I thought it could be a misfire but she hasn't noticed the car being sluggish etc ?

Sorry if the description is a bit vague . .

Cheers
Gregor

Check welds where the exhaust is hooked up. My girlfriends Fiesta blew the weld where the exahust pip is hooked to the car after her new back & centre (standard) boxes were replaced.
