My 2003 SL 500 sounds like a bag of nails after only 50000miles and I have been advised that it is the rear near side catalytic converter breaking up, not an emissions problem. Replacement is very expensive and I believe an exhaust system should be made sufficiently robust to at least outlast the emissions life of the catalytic converter. Any views or experiences please.
