This is a common fault that when they are fitted they aren\'t hung correctly.

Basically you need to get under the car at the back, (on ramps) and then undo the clamp (13mm spanner) and then rotate the exhuast counter clockwise (as you look at it from the back) this moves the hoop up to give more clearance on the exhaust.

Also some aftermarket exhausts can catch on the body work where the rubbers hold them on, you can either trim the mounts on the exhuast, ot bash the bodywork clear (hidden behind bumper)

My exhaust was making a terrible noise upon really booting it, and didnt have a clue what it was......

turned out to be the heat shield was half hanging off and was catching on the middlebox..... hope i didnt need it as it got ripped off..... less weight on car

ring round garages and try and find somewhere that will just look at it for free, then you know your problem, and can come on here and ask how to fix it
