Well today had its up's and down's.
After starting work at 5am this morning i got finished around 2pm and the started on the clio.
Now a few weeks ago i thought i had a stuffed CAT and i knew i had a blow at the joins so after buying genuine renault parts i set about doing that.
I also fitted my new air box bolts as well as a new pollen filter.
Now i also noticed that the centre exhaust mount is burst and hanging like jo brands tits.
Im now going to order up a new one from renault and het that fitted.
Now the bigger problem is going to cost me....... The CAT itself never actually had a problem but the join itself did.
It has snapped and burst and that was rattling about in the join which made me thing it was the CAT itself.
I have packed the join with high temp gasket sealer and im going to hope it holds up but either way i need a new CAT, second hand CAT or a De-CAT
When i do get a replacement CAT or what ever i will also be buying the fitting kit and the clamp once again to have it all fitted and fixed correctly.
