PSE Issues

[Budweiser]

My sports exhaust was making a rattling noise so popped into Autostrsse and my off side rear box, solenoid arm, has detached itself from the the rear box. I’m told it can’t be welded back and so I will need a new box. The cost of which is approx. £1k plus fitting.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so we’re they able to fix it or did they have to purchase a new box?


Thanks.

Or I could fit one of these?

Could be worth while talking to a fabricator to have a look at this.... there are quite a few companies doing valved exhaust systems - so maybe its just a question of cutting out the complete valve assembly and replacing with new? - depending on price might be worth thinking about doing both sides... surely got to be less that £1K or a full new aftermarket system?

Totally agree but I’m seeing it as an opportunity to upgrade as I may keep the GTS and decline my GT4 PDK allocation.

Going to see and exhaust guy tomorrow. He actually manufactures pipes for motorcycles.

Let’s see what he can do (fingers crossed).

Not out of the water yet but hopefully getting there.

Below shows the the issue, I’m ordering a rod end off eBay which we’re hoping can be welded to effect a workable repair.

Cargraphics race system is another contender.

Both sides we’re seized but we’ve managed to free them up, thankfully.

I’ll post results with pictures in due course.

Hi all. Well I’m very pleased to say the fix worked and cost me under £300 including parts.

The guy made up the bracket and I purchased the rod and ball joint off eBay.

The exhaust sounds as it should.

Happy to pass on details to anyone else that has this problem.
