Exhaust a fook i mean Fix

Decided to move my Header Lambnda Sesnor today, it was damaged so i required a new sensor, I have anti Lag on the car, I dont use it just got it for fun and giggles but its not recomended to have the sensor before the turbo as if it breaks off will go into the turbo and BANG! So i moved it.

My cars getting mapped tomorrow and i forgot all about it! SOOO as the wife wanted to go shopping to Darlo ( dont know why ) We went off and i took the pipe with me and found a placed called " Exhaust a Fix" I thought ideal ill get them to sort this out

So 4 hours later i got the pipe back, I think i could have done better my self LOL

Never the less both Welds are leaking so i called them up, his reply was "oh Well thats strange, Bring it back well fix it" Thats fine but it doesnt mean that ballache of taking it back off and going all the way back!!, I didnt even get a sorry about that!! Needed to say i took it off and got it sorted out localy...

Thinking on im sure now i think back Carlos has issues here also ?


Here is a picture of the quality work.

I had two sensors as i am getting a wide band fitted at some point

i did andy got a system fitted they cut the third cat out and welded bit of stainless pipe to the flange in little pieces instead of bending to correct shape all the welds kept leaking excuse the punctuation

Well i wont be using them again thats for certain, stick to who you know AAS Newburn every time

they the biggest tossers around wouldnt give them a shopping trolley

tyre spot on mcmullen rd

they are cowboys like and they are expensive if i remember rightly . I got changed 80 to weld a back box on to my old astra and it was slightly wonky

a wideband lambda needs to be mounted aprox 10 degrees towards horizontal, the second boss looks about right but first one looks vertical

what difference does it make? had mine totally horizontal in the classic and it read accurate. mappers and RRoad tailpipe ones arent mounted specific, just as far into the exhaust flow as possible. im curious lol

Just to add, I saw the quality of drew's welding on Robbo's car, it makes that look like pigeon shit lol
