Thread: Discovery 2 TD5 2003, broken exhaust

No I was laughing at captain obvious saying it was broken. We posted at nearly the same time

Straight through should be fine but some (like me) find it too loud. I found it too droney especially with the auto and towing so went back to std.

I drove around for a couple of days with my exhaust disconnected at the dump pipe. So I would have had no issues with it disconnected underneath the car.
I just have to be gentle on the throttle or it really barked. Turbo spooled up awesome though.

Still easy though. Just buy some high tensile nuts and bolts.

Trev. What did the pipe cost and where did you get it. I want to get rid of my cat.

TF562 is the part number.
And try any of these guys.

I got mine off the recommendation from a forum member. Was like 130+ postage from memory from Sydney. Sorry I can't remember where it was.

Apparently Ritter are a TF stockist. Maybe they can get it in. LR direct also stock them so maybe if you're planning on getting some other parts it might be possible to get it from them.
