Exhaust rubbers for 182

[Diesel_Power]

My exhaust was hanging slightly, turns out the rubber hangings have given way and need replacing.

Do i need ot just order the rubber hangings and how do you replace them? Do i need to remove the mount completely or is there a quick way? Also how do the rubber mountings come off and go back on again?

Cheers.

Rubber mount is bolted to underside by three bolts if I remember correctly. The rubber mount is located on a rod that is welded to the back box. You can cut off the old mount with a stanley knife as you wont need it anymore. The new mount should slide on with a bit of persuasion. I would check you back box at the same time as the joint over the rear axle could be damaged from the mount failing. Good excuse to upgrade the exhaust

Cheers for the advice Viper.

three bolts 13mm hold it to the car then a 8mm bolt holds the exhaust in the mount

I ordered the part on Tuesday, collected it today and its the wrong one.

Although it looks very similar to the one on my car, when it came to actually fitting the peice theres no mountings for it to attach to the underside, just seems to have peieces of metal sticking out which i assume slot into place on anothjer mount.

A long shot but does anyone have the part number for it?

Cheers.

Need a bit of help here please.

Got the mount off and backbox supported on a trolley jack but im having major problems fitting the new mount.

The rubber part has the "O" to slot the rod into place but the gap is far too tight. Im not sure if this is anything what viper mentioned above but inside the rubber mount the "O" has a metal "O" and it seems the old one is still on the rod and wont shift?

What part do i take off with the stanley knife too?

Cheers.

Anyone?

Nevermind, managed to sort it. If for future reference anyone is doing the same job you need to take the bolt off the end of the hanger and the old metal "O" slides off just after.
