Exhaust back box swap

[D_Philli_82]

Hi,

Can't find any how to's for changing a standard back box... I have a 1.9tdi - going to put a 2.0tdi one on (straight pipes) and put some better tips on...got the back box cheap - not looking at muffler delete as I still have the cat and hate the whooshing sound that comes when the cat's still on..so purely cosmetic..

As I understand it's a straight swap but just need to know what's involved and if there's anything I should be aware of when swapping..

Thanks in advance

Higher you can get the car.. the better you can see what you are doing.

That said the backbox is held up by a rubber bush hanger on the passenger side and on drivers side its a rubber with metal bracket with 3 screws. Easier to remove whole bracket to get it off in my exprience.

Lastly may be different diameter pipework present on your 2.0tdi box so get out your measuring tape and might need a reducer sleeve and clamp set.

Good luck! :)
