Hi . Angus here with 2001 2.0 petrol SE . I have a crack in the pipe just after the cat before it enters the middle box . I was going to put a sleeve over it . Theres no support in the gearbox type tunnel area so it can sag . I wondered if anyone knew the pipe size as a sleeve repair kit would allow extra support . Would measure my own but in my truck till Wednesday so cant access it .seems a shame to buy a whole cat when the problem is the pipe that comes out . Reckon its 2" or 2.5" does anyone know .
Apart from this minor flaw cars been ace and its one of three peugeots in the family .
Last convertible I had was clk and prefer this to it .cars great for parking and just a fun little thing .
Will upload a pic when I can work out pixel size .
Not sure of Dia, but why not take it off and get it welded. Those wrap around, jubilee clipped thingies don't work well if that is what you are thinking of using.
When requesting help of a technical nature, please give as much detail of the fault as possible along with details of exact model, engine size & type, gearbox, year, mileage, and any relevant work carried out to try to solve the problem to help us help you.
Better still, put the details in your signature.
Hiya . I'm going to use a stainless section of pipe with cut ends and proper U bolt clamps . They are well made and have used one before on another vehicle .
Theres a great deal of movement because before the cat is a flexi section so the fact that if I welded it it might weaken the other areas close by . The steel sleeve idea makes the material twice as thick . Ive got enough pipe to not interfere with lamdasensor so hence just clamping sleeve over ooriginal pipe .
Hi how did it go .fixing the exhaust . just got a middle box and will have to cut the old 1 as this is a2 piece . and wondered if you had any trouble when you done yours . thanks wyndham.
angledangle hasn't been on since 25th March so you may wait a while for any response from Angus.
