2012 tipper exhaust noise

Postby Jonesyscoob » Sat Jul 04, 2020 6:32 pm

Our 2012 tipper rwd has started to sound like the exhaust is blowing, had exhaust checked all ok, sounds louder with bonnet open and when revving, if I hold my hand near the air filter box hole inlet the noise disappears but sucks my hand in!
Any ideas? Thanks

Have you checked the air filter, some had a habbit of falling to pieces.

Air filter looks ok, would loose injectors cause that type of noise?
