....Are you saying that you think these quality issues are throughout their products and furthermore, whatever their extent, have not been rectified?

So someone please tell me what are the issues? [I have a lot of contact with Milltek and may be able to help all concerned]

Well I keep hearing (and seeing) examples that have tarnished pretty badly - which maybe down to a bad batch, I dunno.
Not a problem on everything back to the exhaust tips (though not ideal), but when they go too it doesn't look good.
Like I say, maybe an unfortunate batch

there's a post here or on golfgti that shows the pipes that were delivered were to big i.e. stick out to much from the bumper.
There's another forum member here who has had his downpipe changed 3 times as the mounts keep breaking. I dont like to dis them but since i first raised this issue nothing seems to have changed.

Thanks for this info, Jamie and Keith - I will discuss it with Mr Milly himself. I'm not an employee of Milltek but I do test some of their products from time to time and am in continual contact with them.

Regarding the broken downpipe mounts, this happened to me too and Milltek now include a poly torque arm insert to reduce stresses and they have also more recently revised the mounts so they are 'telescopic'. I'm away at the airport most of tomorrow but will get back to you hopefully in the next few days - Better if I start a new thread and ask the Mods to transfer some of the posts from here as appropriate.

One thing I can assure you is that Milltek care very deeply about the standard of their products and also do their utmost to deliver the best customer care they can. Their products are continually being improved and they do not sit on their laurels.
