What a stupid thing! So the hose pipe that goes to the actuator or gearbox(sorry not really a mechanical guy) was loose.They must have been touch that when fitted the x pipe.All working good now and what a noise!
I urge to anyone to do the x pipe!

been thinking of an x-pipe change; which one did you get? the Larini or the one from a member here?

Definately one from Benny and save your money.

Good to hear it was a simple fix.

This should be a lesson for everyone who's thinking of an x pipe! Tell them to stay away from that actuator or if your gearbox is not working after the x pipe then start by looking there

I went for the Larini but they all do the same thing so doesn't really makes a difference! Been thinking for few months and now i can't stop driving the car

Those rear connecting pipes look battered to f*ck: they look to have more dents than a golf ball. Btw, did you just change the X-pipe or did you remove the cats as well?

Suggests very heavy use of a mallet to split the rear pipes from the X...and probably missed and hit that pipe that went to the actuator. Not good really.
