Have u made sure all error codes have cleared.

Also was it vauxhall that told u about cat as I had same problem.

Took to Evans Halshaw and cause I had reemus on it kept cumin up code for cat and I told them this wouldn't cause backfire but the insisted on me changing exsaust to standard.

So took to another garage who specialised in Vxr and as soon as I drove In the mechanic told me my car was running on 3 cylinder and checked spark plugs and that's what it was and no more probs

Was just letting you know incase uve took exsaust off when there was no need dude
