Has anyone got a 4200 standard cat pipe i can borrow?

Has anyone got an origional 4200 passenger side cat pipe (exhaust) lying in their garage?

I hav been trying to find the cause of a strange clicking sound coming from the passenger side exhaust for some time now .

I have had the engine checked and its fine ,

I have replaced the H pipe section and now just changed the rear box ...its still there .


The only thing left is to swap out the cat pipe from the down pipe to the H pipe .


Does anyone have one after replacing their squish pipes ?

It's the type where both primary and secondary cats are under the car ( as in not in the manifiolds) see below "item 2"

I do have 2 from my grigio 4200 but they are US spec with primaries in the downpipes. The hybrid has Euro spec ones but they are on the car.

Why not buy the hybrid and then you can try them

Why does grigio on my phone always change to frigid?!

It does....but then you can have a happy pair of 4200's. One light blue and one dark blue. Then one CC and the other manual. It even looks like a GS so you have all bases covered

Yes that is a bit of a way ha ha . Would you be willing to part with the passenger side one if I could get it picked up somehow ?

Hi mate can you not get it taken off and inspected with an endoscope to check if the ceramic cats are breaking up? If it is then that would be your ticking noise and no need to be parts swapping either. If it's really bad then the ceramic will just pour out of the pipe like white sand.

I have had an endescope inside from both ends and can t see anything . All i can think is it might be inbetween the two cats ? or that something else has come loose on the section and is causing the noise . Swapping the whole unit would be the easiest way to rule it out .......if not the it must be the manifold ;(

I would just have 200 cell cats put in but i suspect that it may not be the cat pipe ...and i would just be throwing more money at it .

For Gawds sake someone put him out of his misery! He's been going on about this "Chuffing!" for ages now and it's beginning to become wearisome :D

If anyone wants to hear the chuff then here you go, sounds much more apparent with the H pipe :D which kind of proves it is bank related
