Hello ! allroaders, is there a way to buy the "flexible" section of the Catalytic converter and pipe, same size as the OEM. My converters are in good shape but the "flexibles" are out. I know it can be welded but i have to have the proper part.
You suggestion are welcome.....
À bientôt !!!

Here you go: http://www.ecstuning.com/Audi-All_Ro.../Flex_Section/

You'll have to do some measuring to figure out which size you need for your ride.

MY pipes are "as measured" (not with a vernier) 2 1/8" OD. Does the flex goes over or inside the OEM piping ?

Keep it simple. Take it to a quality muffler shop and they will weld in new flex sections. It's not expensive and will last for years.

Thanks ....But here in Montreal, Québec, it seems that muffler shops prefer to sell their Walker Catalytic converters with the flex pipe instead of trying to fit a "flex" to the existing OEM Catalytic. One of them is also ready to make a better price if he keeps the OEM Catalytic Converter when he replace it with its Walker unit.

That's terrible! I really hate to get taken advantage of. It would almost be worth it to drive to the States and get new flex sections welded in. He wants to keep your OEM Cat?
What a bummer. Sorry.
Wish I could help.

AudiQC,

In Montreal try Rombotis Tuning. These guys do excellent work. They specialize in Audi & VW. They do all the work on my AR. They know ARs inside and out. They recently replaced one of my flex pipes and it wasn't too expensive (I can't remember the exact price.)

Contact Mike (the owner) at Rombotis and tell them Dan with the green AR referred you.
