G60 downpipe flexi trouble ( unavailable)

[volksworld13 0]

Hi guys

 

Im in need of some advise , my down pipe flexi pipe has cracked resulting in my car sounding like a tractor.

I'm wanting to replace it with just a new down pipe. It connects between the manifold 6 bolt flange and the 3 bolt catalytic converter flange.

 

I'm wanting to keep in oem, and not put a stainless manifold on it really..due to big £££

 

My problem is the downpipe has gone obsolete from vw. And all my parts suppliers can't get one.

 

Can anyone else recommend another down pipe that will fit or anywhere that I can buy new in this country .

 

Thanks in advance...

Some Powerflow paces will weld you a new flexi joint in if the rest of the downpipe is still OK?

So it had to be new then.

The used ebay one was 50ish

I'm not sure on the physical differences between G60 and 16V (manifolds are different part numbers too), but Jetex supply downpipe for the 2.0 16v:

It can be found on ebay too.

Wowsers, I sold one on eBay this year for a tenner .. always just depends on whether anyone needs one at the time I guess
