Well, yes and perhaps not. Seems it responded to a good dose of very good cat cleaner squirted into the intake downstream of the air filter at 2500RPM.

So I remain on the new small cat with the old one still in the boot. I may remove it over the weekend and put it in the loft.

Some private discussions to be had I think.

Good to make contact with you and needless to say, I've clocked '252 - it's not every day you get the chance to look up the tailpipe of 4 V6 back boxes: interesting. :lol:

Indeed, and it's all my fault - I took him to pick up his first (and maybe 3rd or 4th (who's counting?)) Xantia.
This is probably completely irrelevant but Old V6 does smell lovely inside after a good, if somewhat enforced rest.
Strange world!
