sounds about right for my luck. Only problems with conversions is nothing is standard. well looks like i will have to get one made up :cry: Or convinse the missus to let me buy that nice rr on ebay :D

On the TDI engines the exhaust is on near (passenger) side of engine, on the VM the exhaust ports are on the off (driver) side. The VM down pipe is on the off side and then the exhaust crosses over to near side.
If you've already got a down pipe then an exhaust specialist can make you a new one using the existing one as a template.

thanks think it may be a vm exhurst as it looks and fits the rr ok. will have to take it to the local stellership and get them to confirm it is then off to britpart to order the new one

When I had my Paj engined Vogue SE, it still had the petrol front box on it. I bought a VM downpipe and front silencer and managed to cut and shut it. Trouble was, all the vibration used to crack the downpipe just below the manifold so I ended up scavenging the local tyre & exhaust centre's skip for a suitable flexi-joint. The same exhaust has now been on it for 4 years with no probs.
