I had to take my 2002 1108cc Seicento on a long trip and while away from home I had to have the back section of the exhaust replaced at a garage. They said that the flexi bit could do with replacing sooner rather than later. I had a look at it, and yes it had surface rust, but it wasn't ready for replacing yet, in my opinion. So, I let them just fix the back section, and thought I'd do the flexi bit when I got home.
The back end of the exhaust that the garage ordered and put on has two "boxes". When I had a look at the Haynes manual, searched for online parts, and also had a good read of previous threads on here, I am confused about what exactly I need to buy for this "flexi bit". It seems that this is complicated as the O/D and sections can vary. also, some of the links on the threads are old and/or not working.
So, can someone advise me please on how to identify which bit I need? Also, will this involve welding, or is it clamped on? Plus, I've got ramps and axle stands, but no pit, and is it just less faff to take it to a garage and let them sort it out? I'd rather do the job myself though.
Thanks,
Andrew
