Yes. Fcuk loads of people have seen it. Chunk, where are you with your "Search mofo" comments?

It's a problem with your secondary air injection. It'll be either perished vac pipes, broken recombiner valves or a dodgy pump, possibly a clogged filter. Nothing terribly serious.

Check your air box is positioned correctly. You've not had it off lately have you?
