Petrol
The hissing is new.

Not sure if it is related, but a month ago (after I had the clutch replaced, there has been a rattle on acceleration. The garage told me tht the catalytic convertor was faulty.

Is the hissing related to that?

Should I stop spending on it and just send it to the scrap yard, it seems to be one thing after the other.

the exhaust may be blocked sometimes the cat can cause this check the amount of ags coming out of the exhaust when you rev it up
