Finally fixed the vibration today that's been plauging the car for a week. Still took it to York though, got a GPS reader and for the road from Howden to the track I averaged 98.83mph :-D. My mates dad borrowed it to go home on Saturday night as his Mustang uses a lot of fuel, and he was well impressed with the handling.

Anyway while I was in the pits I noticed that the exhaust was close to the bolts holding the dog bone mount on. Got it on the ramps today and I could see the dent in the manifold where it has been tapping it. A quick loosen of the de-cat flange, push across and re-tighten and its all sorted, and for free aswell lol.

I was sure it was something serious, as the vibration was coming through everywhere, and was hearable aswell.

See ya

It was bad every time I lifted off the throttle lol. Possibly the most annoying vibration ever, it was so bad I thought the engine or gearbox was going.

Hope it fixes yours Smokey, it was difficult to drive with it doing that all the time.

See ya
