anthony ruff Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 hello im wondering if anyone can help. i have a focus 1.6 and the exhaust is blowing around the flexi pipe, have been given a price of 280 pounds, and was told it was a 3 hour job, my question is ive looked on eBay and have seen a flexi kit that you cut the exhaust so you dont have to remove the manifold has anyone ever done this or is it best to get the manifold with the flexi, thanks tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anthony ruff Posted May 29, 2014 Author Share Posted May 29, 2014 Thanks for the eBay link are they a pain to fit Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stef123 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 I have replied to your other thread regarding fitting. To add to this one.. 3 hours to fit? Tell them to get a grip! It's an hours labour to a garage. Really isn't difficult. You can get an aftermarket manifold/down pipe for around £80 - £100. Plus gaskets.

anthony ruff Posted May 30, 2014 Author Share Posted May 30, 2014 I was told that the engine had to be moved forward does any one have a method on how to do this Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stef123 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Well I have never had to do that on the 1.6 petrol so it's news to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
