Talking

Well after well lane and a very poor performance on the RR ive had my car in at the dealers today (Robinsons of Rochdale) to see if they can sort the problem out of why my car felt a little down on everything
Well 26 quid and some cleaned out pipes later
Much better now she felt lathargic after 5k and didnt seem to pull as quickly to the red line as she should have but giving her a blast on the way home (against a 911 ) she sure showed that shes improved
Gone is the horrible uptake thru the gears (bit of hesitation which my car never suffered from before even though its an MY00) and arrived is the car that i love and know sooooooooooooo well
So if your cars feeling a bit down at the top end, go get your pipes sorted it'll put a smile on your face

Which pipes were cleaned? for £26 it's obviously not too hard just wondering if i could do a DIY on it?

Cheers
