Broken pipe/egr

Post by Andy kay93 » Wed Jan 01, 2020 4:51 pm

Hi all, happy new year!
My probe has started making horrible exhaust blowing noise,
On investigating found pipe broken coming from exhaust manifold
Think it may be something to do with egr, can this be fixed or can you even buy them anymore?

Ps 16v

It’s the pipe from the exhaust manifold, round to to the inlet manifold.
Try, blanking off both ends

Hi kit, thanks, would blanking pipe effect running?
Will probably blank until new pipe ordered

Is this what you need :?:

For quickness, I’ve taken it of my spare engine.

I’ll be interested to know where the pipe has broken :?:
Because, late cars have a one peice cast exhaust manifold, hidden under the heat shield, ( unlike the early car 16V’s that have a four-in-to-one pipe, manifold). I had one of the lugs for the heat shield break off, the cast type. That cause the same blowing exhaust.
