75 V8 exhaust query - Page 2

Welshtony · 16th December 2006, 08:19

That certainly sounds like it (as I said, I haven't seen the underside and am relying on my garage's explanation).

Are those parts available separately (the rubber mountings) or do you have to buy the whole cross member?

I shall have to try and get under the car and have a look!

BTW, I applied to join the 260 forums, but haven't heard yet. Does anyone know how long it takes?

PM your e-mail address and I'll send you the approved 75 V8 exhaust drawing.
Hope this will help get things sorted!

Be able to get the rubbers seperately. I'll see if I have the part number.

I've sent you the details for joining old fruit.

Sorry Welshtony had a look on my data no part number but can tell you that the system is made up of five sections on a system of 8/2/1/2/4. On the rave disc it is Manifolds & Exhaust systems page 30-6 to 8 if the garage wants to know.

Great, thanks Tim!

Hmm, still got problems.

The pic in post 10 is of the area immediately before the silencer. The problem area I have is after the silencer, before the split to the twin exhausts. It is a cross member that doesn't appear on the drawings you've kindly sent me.

I'll try to get a pic of the underside of my car, shgowing the problem area, when i take it back to have the air filter changed (which still hasn't been supplied to the garage!)

Tim that is still just too clean you need to drive it a bit around here we have wall to wall cow poo everywhere!

OMG, you should be ashamed of yourself Tim, posting filthy pictures like that on a public forum.
