Afternoon folks. Hopefully someone can help me narrow this down. No issues with the engine in my 1984 c123 230ce.... until today 
After a short drive the exhaust note suddenly changed from its usual pur to what can only be described as a wanna be v8. I've also got some lift off crackle and pop!
In a different world I would have quite enjoyed this but not with this car.
Hopefully this link works and you can listen and point me in the right direction; exhaust leak, manifold, miss firing...
