Broken exhaust where can i buy a replacement???

Post by Action Ali-bongo » Wed Apr 21, 2010 7:40 pm

Hi.

I have been told my exhaust has sheared its the section between a flexi bit of exhaust and the EGR valve thing i think, can you just buy this section, if so what / where can i look for this part?? I have a 96 2.5 auto diesel with EGR. Hope this makes sense i am not very mech minded!! :oops: Thanks in advance.
If i get any more stupid i will have to be watered twice a week!! :)

Sounds like its the mid section from your description - 40-200 on here - http://www.lushprojects.com/bongopartsm ... mgno=.html I take it that you mean the cold start valve when you say egr? (egr is actually not connected to the exhaust pipe)
Any of the usual bongo type suppliers should be able to sort you out, including the club shop, bongobits, belhill, any mazda dealer, etc, but I doubt any of the high street exhaust places will have it in stock.

Ahh Kirsty you are an angel that diagram is a big help thank you. I think its the 40-110 A part, if so what is that called for purposes of asking / finding where to buy, is it the middle pipe? Yeah sorry guess it would be the cold start valve. Thanks again :D

If you click on the plus sign on the description on the left it gives the part no, description & drawing no.
Is that bit a flexi, it's not clear on the drawing?
It may be as well to replace the whole section & get rid of the cold start bit (if you don't use it?), just fit the standard 40-050A section (in the box above)
