Vendee Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 It just occurred to me that my 55 plate 2.0 TDCi with 131k miles on the clock is still on its original exhaust after almost 9 years. I've owned it from new so I know its original. Can anyone beat that? B) Still on the original clutch too and hoping it lasts another couple of years.

Lenny Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 My original exhaust was scrapped after 18 months but my replacement will outlast the car, T304 stainless Id just like to add that a diesel car's exhaust will outlive that of a petrol Because diesel engine produce more oil and carbon which lines the exhaust repelling moisture corrasion Petrols have a lot of condensation in the exhaust with less oil substance to protect lining. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
