Loud exhaust , early hours

Featured Replies

Sooo... 12am to 12:45 am we had a car ticking over in the carpark ... I was putting the light on and glaring at him but they still continues, (was not in the mood to argue)

I expect it has a straight exhaust with no cat, it rumbles though my house.

Last night this Toyota thing pulls in , Dumps the clutch and hits the gas a few times to rev (we were sat out in the car park as a mate just took me out in his 20v)

Pulled in earlier with endless revving

As he got in his car to leave he revved it up loud 3 times fo no reason and then left...

Sooo... this got me thinking , this thing has an intercooler as tall as my radiator

I also couldn’t see a bumper on this car so hes either hacked it apart or has no radiator which i thinks is a danger?

It had flippy up headlights so I'm assuming its an old Toyota celica or something the cooler went from like headlight level all the way to the floor with nothing covering it up.

Annywho , What can you do about loud exhauts at silly hours?

I dont really want to be calling 101 and being an ass but i feel like I'm going to have too.

My little girl is up early and I'm normaly working lates so i kinda need my sleep and....

Ill take a screwdriver to his fmic and give the boost leak from hell.. joke

I'm going to have to i think , One thing that really pisses me off is when people dont have respect or dont think about how things affect others , theres alot of houses in this little close.

if i had a car like that i would be scared of pulling up places encase i piss someone off , My diesels bad enough starting up at 5:30am but needs must .. chug chug chug as its warming up lol

Yeap! Hate it when I leave at 5.15am starting the mk3 or even the diesel, especially if I need to scrape the windscreen or something !

If i drive home late, I just drop it in to a low gear.

If I do that it pops hahaha

:lol: Nothing worse then when i had to bypass my heater matrix , Leaving the engine running to warm up scraping thick ice on the front , scraping the inside. getting in. driving to the end of the close , getting back out and clear it again after it refreezes....

Just been outside , looks like hes got the bumper on it now. he must be visting someonewhere for a few days... No doubt ill hear him dump the clutch later and redline it to wake everyone up

he obiously didnt see us sat in the dark carpark lastnight as he came in , dropped the clutched and revved so show how loud it was...

heared him come and go today over my music , was laying flooring down in the hallway so had it up a decent ammount , not too loud that i couldnt hear my little girl. All you hear is .... RAAAM bum bum bumb RAHHHHMMMMMMMM as he starts up and pulls away then hear waaaahhmmmm... booble booble booble WAAAHMMm WAAAAMM WAMMMMM ,... *engine off*

If your sat there like i just was and making the noises then your a top geek 8-)

*you're

My neighbours complained about my old white polo's loud exhaust. Nothing i could do. Had to be up at 5 to leave, and there was no way i'd be driving off without warming the engine a bit. I haven't complained about there kids stomping and screaming round the house at 6 on a sunday morning.... I have a quiet standard exhaust on my current one.

I agree revving un neccesarily is annoying, but there really isnt alot you can do about it apart from report to the police, who wont even bother. I told the police several times about the scrambler bikes with no exhaust, tax, insurance, being ridden with no helmets and making a huge noise. Nothing was done.

Unfortunately, any noise nuisance is down to the council, who will log it, then send someone round with a db meter, which obviously doesn't help when it's someone in a car who isn't always there.

Other than that, get some mates round, then go and have a word with the annoying twats :grin:

I was going to a rolling road on Saturday morning (leaving at like 6 in the morning) my exhaust isn't loud at all but with my car being diesel it can be a bit louder than a petrol when cranking, so I rolled off the drive and down my road, until I was going fast enough to bump it, just to avoid cranking it. I'm nice to my neighbours.

I wouldnt do that if i had a G40 with a lysholm charger :lol: . You have to start your car. Its as simple as that. 6 isnt that early anyway.

if its on the public highway the police will get involved especially if you have evidence, it will usually be dealt with by a chat with the driver or a section 59.

any vigilante action will be frowned upon by the law, even if they deserve it.

It is on a Saturday morning when the neighbours have young kids, and you live on a cul-de-sac. It also doesn't help that my car is on a driveway between 2 houses so amplifies the noise

I have no neighbors :lol:

When I'm at my parents the neighbours one side are never there the ones the other side are knobs, so i dont care, even the guy at the end of the street wheels his bike down to our end before starting it because he hates our neighbors too. :lol:

Winds me right up. Pricks thinking they look good with a loud exhaust, bathroom mirror vibrates from one of our neighbours cars and for the last 18months we've had a nightmare with the baby.

If it was one car fair enough i could take action, but it's a never ending problem.

One prat who liked flooring it up our hill lost one of his rims when I inched out quickly on him. Sorted that one out. Another makes an effort and drives in on idle, but those revs are worse than 2k.

The bike carbs are only noisy when gassing it, but otherwise quiet. Exhaust noise is just shit. Especially when it's resonating in a tubular stainless subwoofer ten sizes too big for any power gain..

My car isnt noisy just raspy.. and that only comes into effect about 3k .

which i dont see the point of doing in built up areas lol ...

Only time i do feel bad is when i start car up and leave it on choke a min to warm up .. But i leave for work at 8 so its not stupid oclock XD

People just wanna learn to sleep properly IMO, if you get woke up by a car idling at 1500rpm with an exhaust you must be super sensitive!

Pointless revving is just not on.

My misses lives in a street so if i need to go early in the morning i do try to keep the noise right down. theres the initial on choke starting rev and then i try to keep it down, in summer its not too bad but winter its a bugger, i de-ice all the windows then start the car.

Guy across the road has a very loud R32 so i sometimes try to coincide my start up with his already running. lol

Look at him and say fuck yeah bitch .. have some bike carbs !!!! lol ..

Diesle's are the worst i think tbf lol

diesel with a 3" turbo back straight through pipe for the win, through the week i'd leave for work at about 7am, but on Saturdays it would be 5.45am. the thought of me fucking up my neighbours sleep made me feel a little better about having to get up so early on cold dark winter mornings :thumbsup:

Normally not so bad , Still wakes me up when hes idling as its just so loud - I don’t think it has any silencers what so ever plus we're next to the car park the house just rattles

Again it doesn’t help he winds the clock round to the limiter a few times every time he pulls in with a pop and bang.. luckily he hasn’t been here in the last 2 days…. There’s been a pug with a loud arse cannon but nothing that keeps us up

Just talk to the guy..... If he's a idiot tell him your going to ring the police if he carrys on. Don't know why people are so scared of talking to strangers.
