Re fitting OE 172 exhaust

[Lee]

Is there anything I need to know about re fitting the original exhaust to my 172. It was cut into two pieces when removed so I assume I need a sleeve to re join the parts?

Can anyone shed any light on this for me please?

Thanks

Lee

yup you get it from renault mate

 

[Lee]

Cheers dude.

One other thing. When Fred took yours off he didnt cut it, as mine was cut am I going to need anything more to re fit mine?

 

[McBunny]

mine was cut off by renault when i had center section replaced mate if you cut it in the right place all you need is the clap or clamp

 

[Fred@BTM]

why are you getting rid LEEROY M?????

 

[Lee]

A couple of reasons really. One is Im being screwed on insurance where ever I seem to go. So taking it off is going to save me there.

Also Im thinking of swapping the car in April/May and the dealer wont want the exhaust. So I figured Id kill two birds with one stone and do it before my renewal.

How much extra do you think they are charging you for just an exhaust.. its crazy really !

 

[Lee]

Around £100 - £150 notes mate.

My insurance always is harsh, I think I was ear marked as a nutter from an early age. I just want to pay less than a grand before Im 30.

Nice one Has. You actually have one of the collars there? Maybe I could meet you somewhere one evening and buy it off you?

Ive just dragged the original exhaust out the shed. Looks like it shouldnt be too hard.

One other thought I had was I wonder how easy the Magnex will be to remove. They got it on in one so I guess I can get it off in one.

 

[Has]

Yup i got one here,

sitting next to me,

Its pretty simple to take off, ive tried mine, hehehe

Yup, if u want a hand taking that one off im available as im off uni, so just give me a yell, infact the garage downstairs has a ramp if u wanna make it a quick job!! lol

Let me know bout the collar i got it here doign nothign as i baught it for mine just incase i needed to put it bak on.

Sounds good to me, shame Im pushed for time. I need to get it done before next month, but Im out and about every weekend for the next month and a half. Ramps would be a godsend, but I think Im going to have to do it on my neighbours little ramps on the drive next Saturday morning.

 

[Has]

aaah

no worries, well if u need anythign u know where i am

to join an old and new original standard exhaust parts togethor you have to cut the exhaust in a specific place.seeing as you are just refitting the original one though as long as it has been cut on a straight section then the renault sleeve will rejoin it.
