Hi 2-3 months ago had a replacement cat fitted to 02 406 estate , by "you cant get better than a...etc" well I am sure you can! Ever since then when running at 20,000 revs (the car engine I mean)both mobile and stationary there is a vibration through the car and a drumming sound. I have been back 6 times they refitted it 3 times ,replaced the cat .
and then suggested it may be a faulty an engine mount which seems coincedental as the sound only appeared after they had their mitts on it!
Any suggestions as its not doing my blood pressure any good!
