Hi again

Just some advice have a wig hanging out my tailpipe and a little drone has anyone any idea which part of my exhaust is the offending piece 😂

Probably the back box, but if it's in that state the rest won't be too far behind ;)

Plenty available off ebay, preference is ETS/Eternal, but be mindful that saloon and estate are different  ;)

Also facelifts have a slightly longer tail pipe and 3.0/3.2 have twin tailpipes, but cat back any V6 system will fit as long as correct body type :y
Onanists always think outside the box.

I wouldn't like to try to get a cat back V6 exhaust system to fit on a 2.2.... ;D
2002 3.2 Elite saloon, 2003 3.2 Elite saloon & estate

All of it.


The wig is the wadding from the back box, but exhausts rot from the inside(exhaust gasses are wet, hot and corrosive). So it's quicker, easier and cheaper - in the long run - to replace the whole system. When a complete, quality, cat back system for a V6(which is double what a 4 cylinder needs) is <£100 it's not worth faffing about with single components

Okay thanks for the advice chaps :)
