Title: 2.2 exhaust flexi
Post by: JamesV6CDX on 21 December 2013, 19:26:50
Mine has failed spectacularly!

I understand a new one can be welded in

My welding skills are non existant , is it possible to use a clamp on one?

Also does anyone know the size please? :y :y

If you have a unipart parts stockist near you James they list many different lengths and diameters,I used one on a Saab 9-3 yesterday that had a DPF so obviously much cheaper than a complete pipe/Dpf :y

Cheers rob, is that the right size?

Looking at that pic,  clamp on isn't an option...

DPF?

Diesel Particulate Filter.  The rest of the sentence is "the ****ing DPF is blocked again"

Thanks reading about those filters recently can be a problem and very expensive to replace I understand.
