S40 exhaust

kintrea · Mar 27th, 2018, 15:06

Hi everyone,

i have a '52 plate 2.0T s40 and need a centre section and rear silencer.

Parts places round here (Glasgow) only one could get the rear silencer...£350!!! (bosal 235-159) and didnt list the centre.
Another had the wrong part number listed for the 2.0T (centre section on shelf, physically looked different, smaller silencers) and said it must be for just the 2L non T

Any recommendations of where to get the proper one? Its mot's looming.
Does the non T exhaust fit from the cat back, bore size/flange size the same?? (desperate times, desperate measures

)

Thanks
Alex K

Has it rotted through at the flanges?

Yes, only 1 bolt still holding it together lol, and the centre box is blowing as well.

Antz has a full system in his thread that would compliment your 2.0T nicely

I put one of these on my 2.0T about two years ago, still looking as good as when it went on. Can't beat the value for money, it seems better quality than the usual Motor Factor exhaust parts and delivery was only a week.

Did you get that exhaust from eBay in the end? Looking for another review of it if you did? Is the trim ok?
