Removed my exhaust today as its leaking at 2 joints. While I was taking it off the CAT/Downpipe seemed to wobble a lot , but I put this down to the flexi allowing it to do so.

While I moved it around I could hear the CAT rattling as if there were stones inside it - in other words the CAT may have started to collapse inside ?

I havent taken the CAT and downpipe off as yet as I dont want to go to the trouble if there is no need to , but my question is should I ?

faroked cat need a new one.. just check the car over before putting a new one on s you might have a slight fueling problem causing the cat to break down and as youve shown break up aswell.
