christopher corrado 10 Posted April 4, 2013 Hi i'm trying to find an exhaust centre box/ silencer. I know there's one on eBay for 100 pounds but, wondered if anyone had or knew where I could get a cheaper one, thanks Chris Part number is EXVW3063 for a VW CORRADO 1.8 16v 1990 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted April 4, 2013 Have you tried a stainless exhaust place like Powerflow or Longlife? I'm sure they'd be a little cheaper than that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bmwcompact 10 Posted April 4, 2013 Do you mean one of these? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-CORRADO-GOLF-II-1-8-86-95-Exhaust-Central-Silencer-/160486482971?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3ACorrado&hash=item255dbd641b Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
christopher corrado 10 Posted April 4, 2013 Yes it looks like that but I contacted them and they said it's not suitable for my car Do you mean one of these? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-CORRADO-GOLF-II-1-8-86-95-Exhaust-Central-Silencer-/160486482971?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3ACorrado&hash=item255dbd641b Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bmwcompact 10 Posted April 4, 2013 Assuming you have hooks (1990), I think you have VW 535 253 409A obsolete: Bosal 233-593 obsolete, Imasaf 72.54.06. Imasaf is available from Germany but with carriage 150 euros so more expensive. Non of the vw suppliers have anything, just the few suppliers on Ebay all around £100, no idea what brand/quality on offer. Other options are used mild steel/stainless steel or new stainless. In your shoes I'd look for someone breaking and buy a used system but maybe you want it done asap? http://www.auspuff-sets.de/as-shop/index.php?pc=1LXc09LP2t3ozcc%3D&as=1LWkmJijnezY&va=1LWZkt3P&ac=1LWelZOf39Y%3D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
christopher corrado 10 Posted April 4, 2013 I can wait as I currently have a terrible after market system ,that I inherited on the car. I'm just impatient to get it changed, as it's embarrassing driving around with 2 upturned tail pipes! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rodmax 0 Posted April 5, 2013 Shame your so far away i have a complete exhaust system inc the downpipe you could have for 25 quid rod Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
christopher corrado 10 Posted April 5, 2013 That would be ideal Rod, would you consider posting it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rodmax 0 Posted April 6, 2013 Hi sorry its still in one piece and the weight,it would be pretty expensive to post. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
christopher corrado 10 Posted April 6, 2013 Ok that's fully understandable but, I thought I'd ask. Where do you live because, maybe I could come down with the wife one weekend and make out it's a day out for her! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bmwcompact 10 Posted April 9, 2013 (edited) Have you seen this one on Ebay?? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VOLKSWAGEN-CORRADO-1-8i-COUPE-SILENCER-BOX-VW672-/160896133088?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3ACorrado&hash=item25762827e0 You need to check its the right one-it may be the later one for the 9A despite what the ad says!

christopher corrado 10 Posted April 9, 2013 Hi it says it's for the corrado dated 8/1991-3/1992. The one I want seems to be rarer than hens teeth Have you seen this one on Ebay?? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VOLKSWAGEN-CORRADO-1-8i-COUPE-SILENCER-BOX-VW672-/160896133088?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3ACorrado&hash=item25762827e0 You need to check its the right one-it may be the later one for the 9A despite what the ad says!

christopher corrado 10 Posted April 9, 2013 Ok Rod. I will probably be in Bristol in the next couple of weeks so could come by and pick up the exhaust. If you email me your number to [email protected] I will let you know when I'm going to be there Thanks Chris QUOTE=rodmax;964172]Hi i'm based in gloucester Rod Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
