you more than likely just need to twist the exhaust slightly to raise it up over the rear beam, or if its not that then its catching on the side of the exhaust tunnel just before the rear beam, these are the most likely places they catch tbf

mines knocks like a f**k, most of the time its aginst the heat shield or the tunnel the bac box sits in, its annoying but gives me an excuse to get a new system :lol:
best place for hangers is scrappy or from vauxhall they shud only be a few quid
