Left home for work this morning......went to start the car and heard a huge bang from behind the car inbetween it turning over and starting.....like a back fire.
No smoke, flames (lol) or anything like that - scared the f*cking sh*t out of me though!!
Got out had a look behind - nothing, no smell, nothing.
Started the car again and it was all fine, drove to work no problem.
What on earth could this have been, unless I was just dreaming!?
Huge bang!

Could have been some un-burnt fuel in the exhaust from when you turned it off previously... maybe?
Or it could have been a prankster putting something up your pipe (oo-er) so it shot it out when you started it up... maybe?

lol oh well...it's been running fine since so I guess nothing to worry about.
If it was something stuck up my pipe, fair play to the little b*stards for scaring the sh*t out of me!
