ParticipantAgree with Andrew, the new Scorpion STR Cat Back system is good……very good (Andrew and I own the 2 R&D “test” cars, and I have been running one on my 2.0FSi petrol since late last year)
I would recommend the Non-Resonated system, without the smaller silencer, this will make your car sound great, seems to rev a little more freely too.
All I would suggest is, like Andy says, contact STR via his link, and explain your engine isn’t on the list, (I suspect you have a 50mm pipe, but you should check this, you need to measure where the exhaust comes out of the tunnel in the floor, just before the bend round to the first silencer, there could be a join here)
Its a great exhaust, and the quality is comparable with other “Hi Quality” after-market exhausts.
And here it is

ParticipantI’ve had a similar problem
Had the local dealer run a diagnostic. My problem is the Motor in the drivers door that controls the central locking, it buggered, this shows up as a fault, and as the central locking only works intermittently, it also shows a fault on the lock itself.
A way to see if this is the problem, when the alarm is going off, is the interior light on? If its a lock module in the doors, this will probably happen.FSiLeonMike
ParticipantAndrew is right, Onvi Yellow was terrible.
Its actually a milking of the top clear coat I believe. Right pain in the arse

ParticipantAbove stereo, there is an Air Con, (AC), and recirculated air (swirly arrow), and heated rear screen (has a sqaure symbol on it)

ParticipantThere is a sticker on the inside of the petrol filler cap flap (or there should be)

ParticipantAgreed, an re-map on an N/A car will return 5 to 8bhp increase at best. (Some will claim 15 to 20bhp, but without machanical bolts ons, this is very doubtful)

ParticipantWelcome along!

ParticipantI think, but may be wrong, the PD140 Engine from pre facelift cars didn’t have DPF filters. It was just the PD170 and the Ecomotive.

ParticipantThey “should” do, both cars are built on the same platform
