Exhaust blowing

HMJonesy · 27th September 2018, 14:52

Ive had a noisy exhaust for a couple months and me thinking it was the flexi part ive left it until its now unbearably loud.

Ive had a look today and thankfully its a hole in the back box, still expensive to replace compared to past cars but easily done.

When looking though i discovered that the middle boxes, flexi pipe and cat are all in 1 pipe with no joins. Only joins are at the back box and the bottom of the down pipes before the cat.

Is this a factory fitted pipe as images i see online have a join between the cat and mid boxes. Another thing i noticed is it has 2 middle boxes close together while online images show a much bigger gap between the 2 boxes on the mid pipe.
