Title: Bloody Eternal!
Post by: tunnie on 28 August 2011, 17:16:17
Sent me wrong exhaust  >:(

Today was final bit, I dropped the old exhaust, put new centre section on, clear it was not right:

With rear box on rear hangers...

Back box was no way near, it was missing a bracket too.

Was that supposed to be for a 2.0ltr as opposed to a 2.2 Mark?

Was a 2.0, but that should fit fine. One I bought and fitted to Father T's back in March was also ordered as a 2.0.

I get feeling its a centre section from a 2.5  :-/

in fact i think its the drivers side centre section from a 2.5, that could explain the angle it exits at.

Thought a 2.2 had a twin exhaust up to the back box? Would have thought a 2.0 exhaust would be more restrictive.  :-/

2.2 has twin centre sections, with 2 into back box. Fitted 2.0 one to fatherT's works & goes well.

Fitting an Eternal exhaust to a Janes DTi estate tomorrow, must admit that the packaging was less than adequate to ship such a heavy item in.
