Exhaust seems a bit 'raspy' when cold

[deanobeano]

Standard exhaust - seems to be noisier of late. Only happens when cold. When warm it turns into its former self...

I would describe the noise as a bit more rasp (this is at low revs, just pulling away from home) and I suppose a bit of rattle.

Will be booking a trip to Elms post Donnington so will get Gareth to look at it, but if you have any suggestions.

Thanks

i have exactly the same issue! i would describe it as a little rattly too?

anyone know why?

its weird as once warm it completely goes away!

They all do it. Probably a bit of over fuelling when cold and I think I read somewhere that there is ERG type of system used when the engine is cold?? The primate will soon chip in.

Ok for some reason I always thought it was thinner exhaust! But they all do it I think.

You should hear what it sounds like with the Supersprint "Race" back-box - it sounds REALLY basey from cold - so much so that it rattles our house windows (so my other half says) and hurts my ears inside the car until it has warmed up :119:.

Yep the SS race system is louder again, but loved mine, cold, warm, hot !

Best exhaust by a mile on a CSL

I have the SS racebox aswell and the sound when its dead cold is amazing! it rattles, splurges and pops especially in first and second gear when letting off the throttle.

Deano.

My (standard) one sounds like bits are dropping off when cold too.

All normal.
