Technical Exhaust or Not?

[watts320]

Is this a hole in my exhaust or some other problem with part of the exhaust or is this car just trying to wind me up now?

Ive been told by 2 people (without looking properly) that my exhaust is ok, but Im still not convinced. Im taking it to a garage tomorrow, Just want your insight on this.

Thanks for all your help.

Hard to guess from the video.

Really easy to check for blow - you can feel it on your hand (careful for hot parts, gas).

Put a rag on your hand and try to block the exhaust - if it doesn't get blown off or at least cause huffing and puffing you have a hole somewhere in the system. Not an exact science but you know it when you see it sort of thing.

Yea, Always thought it had a hole somewhere or some sort of problem. The noise does tend to come from the back box, but if I go to the front of the car it sounds like the front or near front. But id put 80% on the back box. The car was modified before buying it, and Im trying to get it back to standard.

ihad punto in once that ibought to break up exhaust looked new all waythrough

but it sounded blowy, if you shook back box it was rattly sounded like kids had
put stones up the pipes,

they can rot internaly and colapse and sound like sport box,

they is only 21 quid ish to replace so iwouidnt loose no sleep over it if its a failed box,

Ill shake it tomorrow and find out, If it doesnt make a noise inside ill still say there is something wrong with it, but thanks for all ya help guys. Ill post back with what the garage says tomorrow.
