N.Wood Posted August 19, 2006 Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 Tap it with a bit of wood or summat, and see if it sounds as though there are bits rattling around inside it. The honeycomb can breakup and fragment, causing blockages and affecting gas escape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials_pimp Posted August 19, 2006 Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 cat hav a few waknesses.impact/vibration damageflash cooingpetrol contaminationthese things will desrtoy your cat.it breaks up the monolith inside the can, and causes it to block the pipe. and te reason cats are so expencive, is that they contain preciaous metals, platnum, gold and a few others.if you have hit it chancs ae it will be breaking up. test it be raising the car and lightly tapiing the exhaust. if you hear it rattling, you have collapsed te monolith and ae in ned of a new cat.

The enchanted broomstick Posted August 20, 2006 Report Share Posted August 20, 2006 unless its "blowing" as in making a wierd noise its not really anything to worry about. You have the indepth explanations from other members on here but seriously they are bugger all to worry about. If in fact after a test it does seem broken up screw replacing the bugger. Get a de-cat pipe made up, it will give you car a nice little roar sound and release a little bit more power not to mention it being a shit load cheaper.
