Hello everyone.
I'm having some trouble with my 88 panda 4x4 ie. Cat.
This winter (long time ago I know) I noticed some exhaust smoke coming from under the hood (or from the grill rather). Didn't have time to look into it until now, but now it's time for the MOT so no choice at this point.
What I discovered was two things:
The catalytic converter (cc) has cracked all the way around right under where it attaches to the manifold.
I also seem to be missing the two right side bottom bolts on the manifold.
My questions are these:
Would it be possible to weld the cc back together again or will I need to buy a new one?
What kind of bolts attach the exhaust manifold to the topp?
I have no idea where the bolts have gone tbh. It's the one on the picture and the one to the right of it that's gone missing.
Cheers,
Albert
