Rattling in the exhaust

Now this was a surprise:shock: poor owner thought he had a loose cat shield or similar, this fell out of the n/s cat when we undone it to check out the turbo.

    how the hell did that break off like that.... lol

     

    Goodness knows, seen a couple of turbo`s in the past which have sheared the shaft, can only speculate........ balance, vibration, metal fatigue or all of them.
