   Morning all,
   
   I have a weird problem with my saxo that only seems to happen once warmed to normal temp. It sounds like the exhaust is blowing. I took it to a garage to get it looked at as the rev counter was bouncing during this blowing noise, The mechanic cleaned the throttle body but the car still does the blowing except now the rev counter doesnt bounce. I can record the sound if needed.
   
   Hope you can help
   
   Thanks
   
   Simon

   Can't really tell but the sound comes from the tail pipe, i had a new clamp put on the backbox as the back box joint is rusted and has some corrosion which caused the old clamp to collapse.

   Get a mate to rev the car whilst you hold a rag over the tailpipe,any blows in the joins will show up.
