I am getting sick to the back teeth of the Tanabe SMR system on my EK4, it just will not fit properly! I have to check in at the local garage about once a month to have everything tightened up again, more exhaust sealant added etc. This is really starting to grip my sh!t now, for something that costs so much, shouldn't the bloody thing just fit properly? I was of the impression that Tanabe were a well known brand, I'm beginning to doubt this now and am starting to rate them as some cheapo knock off backstreet monkeys.
It just keeps working it's self loose, knocking loudly on the underside of the car when travelling down less than smooth roads, rattling on the subframe, it touches the rear ARB permenantely sending high frequency vibrations through the cockpit all the time, and now, it's just started blowing from the decat pipe AGAIN.
I am seriously ****ed off with this, DO NOT BUY THESE SYSTEMS, THEY ARE CRAP.
That is all.
