Just had a strange one yesterday, exhaust started blowing a bit, then more and more whilst my son was learning basic clutch control on the drive. Had a look underneath this morning and the exhaust has broken off where it clamps to the manifold. It looks like a 'flexi'. The rest of the system looks brand new! Is there such thing as a repair section? I could do without putting a complete new cat on.
One other thing, do the two sensors either side of the cat just unscrew?
Thanks
Pete

Year, Engine Code or better still VIN? There are different systems.

Re: C4 cat flexi repair?
There are a few on here. The one on my wifes 206 rusted through at the other end, tried to weld it but had to get a new cat eventually.

Re: C4 cat flexi repair?
Cheers for the info. I found this https://www.24piecesauto.fr/7703126-ebe ... chappement and this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BM-Premium-E ... 23a1bf81fd
I'm going to have a go at welding the lip back on, nothing to lose apart from a bit of wire and gas. If it doesn't work I'll go for the complete system at that price.
Thanks again
