Hi all, I reversed into a hidden dirt mound and knocked my back box off, is this required for mot? I only ask as there was absolutely no change in noise etc and it's only a small box.

If it's a fail, without getting underneath, is there a way to know what pipe/s I'll need to order as there seems to be a single pipe or a split pipe????

It's a 1994 5 door 300tdi, the front pipe is already new.

Thanks

Dave
 
the 300 tdi exhaust system is made up of 3 parts but you buy 2 as rear part does split into 2 for fitting but comes as one part
 
did the same to mine a couple of years ago came apart just behind the rear mount, i just got a bit of pipe that hammered inside ... hammered the back box back on... splattered enough arc weld on to hold it and wrapped the join with an exhaust bandage... its passed 2 mots since
 
I see LR genuine parts exhaust is over £100-£150 (I Googled the part no.) but that patten part looks ok and in middle of the price range, they all seem to be supplied as two parts, so fit both and forget about it hopefully for a few years. Go for it :D
