looking for the part number for my exhaust

Post by nickmax »

Hi , forgive me if a babble a little as i,m a newbie :lol:
Ive just received my spanky new back box exhaust for my Peugeot 206(2002) Roland Garros 1.6 and like everything i order it's wrong :( .
Ive been online searching everywhere and all it's done is confused me....... i didnt realise there's so many!
when i look at my exhaust ,then online i can't seem to match it up with any pictures either ??? :?
The one a got is similar but as i did fit it it's slightly offset and far to low and the box is touching a metal rod causing a rattle ...
:? :? :? :? :?

Can anyone please help me ...

Thanks ..... :thumbs: :thumbs: Nick

Hi Nick, and welcome.

If you are ordering online, it sounds like you are ordering a patterned part rather than genuine. If this is the case, then each manufacturer will use their own system of part numbering.
Patterned parts aren't always the best fit and some times need *adjusting*

To be honest, rather than keep guessing and getting the wrong part, you may be better off getting one fitted by your local exhaust centre
(notice I said LOCAL as opposed to national chains)
I find that usually I can't buy it for what they can fit it for.
Cheers Col.
