Hello
I have blow coming from my exhaust which kwik fit have been unable to see on the ramp (seeing it myself, the exhaust looks in pretty good condition). This makes me think it must be the exhaust manifold as its the only bit I can't see. The blow fades after about 10 mins unless its under heavy load.
Honda want nearly £100 just to tell me the problem so I'm wondering if I should just buy an aftermarket exhaust manifold and have that fitted.
As I have a totally standard exhaust system, would there be any benefit in upgrading the manifold? Kwik fit reckon it could just be the manifold gasket but I'm not sure how I could find this out without losing a tonne to Honda.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance
Jim
