    Exhaust blowing already!!!

    My 05 plate NHB has just started blowing, the car is only 1.5 years old and I've owned it from new, not happy at all :evil: It sounds like the back box, surely this shouldn't go after only 30,000. Would I have any luck at trying it on with the warranty? Any idea on cost fitted? TIA Nick
