id suggest you not, as they will probably not define the problem. They will probably 'suggest" you replace your flexi/cat watever as that 'could' help the problem.
They are not mechanics. Just define your problem before your spend :wink:

does it do it under load? (eg accelerating) or will it make the noise whist reving in neutral? Exhaust leaks are usually a constant noise, rather than specific points, and will leak under any curcumstances. (eg load, no load)
