Question

Just wondered if anyone has had any problems with heat shield noise or small exhaust leaks since having PPP fitted? (STi)
Over the last couple of days I've noticed a very slight "tizzy" sound from under the car when starting from cold. The noise goes quickly as the system warms and expands. The car's being left overnight at the dealers so they can have a listen from cold tommorow morning.

I can't help, and perhaps this is a silly question.....

But what on earth is a 'tizzy' sound ????

Perhaps they have not cut enough, or possibly too much off the heatsheild, so thats whats causing the noise.
Not heard of any other problems.
But a return trip to dealer should sort.

Tizzy - a cross between tinny and buzzy - I thought everyone knew that? Come on now, stop taking the p**s and give me an answer!
