I have a Hyundai Santa Fe on an 04 plate.
It recently lost power, especially driving uphill.
Went to Hyundai main dealer, ran computer diagnostics, no problems showing.
After a lot of going back and forth they decided it was a blockage somewhere in the exhaust.
Recommended I replace the whole exhaust from the Cat back .. !
Looked everywhere, kwikfit, internet etc for a good price...
No one else can fit it, its a DEALER ONLY PART has to be fitted by Hyundai
Cost £878!! plus £60 an hour labour!
How much!!!
For a ******* exhaust!!!
Robbing stinging Hundai ********!
Anyway, searched for custom made stainless steel exhausts..
MIJ Performance Parts in Walsall, 30 mins drive.
Made it and fitted it while I waited with free internet, two and a half hours.
Cost £364.99 including fitting and VAT!
Saved me £500!
Stick that in your Tailpipe Hyundai! LOL

Mate seriously you own a Kia? Plus never take their initial opinion as they are always ready to take your money. I had a mate who took his MK4 Golf to VW to diagnose a problem they were gonna charge £120 to sort plus labour and I fixed it with a part which cost £17.
