Exploded Resonator Box

Recommended Posts

R5-al

Ive just got my car back from haveing a exhaust done and as soon as I put the ignition on there was a loud bang and a puff of smoke from under the bonet after turning it of quick I removed the rad to find a large peace of thr resonator box (size of hand palm)blown of the bottom rigt under the hole where it enters the plenum!! Its confused me I havent got a clue! Has this happened to anyone else? Also my car is only 90% finished so not on the road is there something I could have done wrong to cause this? Of is it just the cold makeing the plastic brittle?Any helf would be appreciated

Mine blew along the seam when the car backfired, so I ditched it and blocked the hole
