J johnny99 Middle Lane Hogs Jul 17, 2008 #6 If there's no exhaust leak, it's very possibly a lambda sensor. Should show up as a fault code. John
E ericsti Guest Jul 17, 2008 #7 As above. Check for Leaks if theres none and there isn't a Stones in a can sound from your Cats then you will need to replace the lambda Sensor. Best of look. By the way if there is a stone in a can sound out of your Cat then the Cat is fucked.
