Fitted a new zorst system to the scoob (2001) and it turns out that the above steering column joint is hitting the downpipe next to the turbo, it there any fix of this or is it just a case of denting the downpipe to stop the joint hitting the dp?
Thanks

would double check that it is the right downpipe for your car as there shoudnt be any kind of contact in that area.
How do you know it is making the contact there is it from a noise that you are getting?
Reason I ask is that under the car there is a support on the gearbox for the standard downpipe and if this isnt connected to the new downpipe (they dont always fit here) then it can clatter against it making it feel as though your car is about to fall apart

The whole exhaust came as one kit, downpipe centre & back box.
Its causing the steering to be juddery at low speeds, doesnt sound the best either.
Need to try and have look underneath then.
Thanks
