Important: If you have one of the other types it is usually very easy to sort but might require some adapters or welding for installation. PLEASE NOTE THE ABOVE IS NOT A DEFINITIVE LIST, ALWAYS CHECK BEFORE ORDERING IF YOU ARE UNSURE ON FITMENT. MIGHT REQUIRE SOME VEHICLE MODS AND SLIGHT ADAPTATION TO FIT YOUR VEHICLE.
This pipe allows you to remove the restrictive DPF filter which is fitted to all modern diesel engines. The DPF or diesel particulate filter is fitted in the exhaust and catches soot and other diesel particulates, these filters have to go through a regeneration every once in a while which is controlled by the ECU, this usually happens when the vehicle is on the motorway. If the vehicle has not been able to regenerate the filter for a while or there is a fault with the engine itself the filter will block up and initially cause a fault to appear on the dashboard, if you continue to use the vehicle the filter can block completely causing the engine to stop running. Removing the DPF allows the engine to breathe more efficiently freeing up power and reducing fuel consumption, it also improves reliability. Once the pipe is fitted the car will need to have the ECU remapped otherwise the EML light will probably show and cause the car to go into a limp mode. A new filter from a dealer will often be £500 or more plus labour. The catalyst is also removed with this pipe. NB:.

Built on familiar Volkswagen Group foundations, these Volkswagen applications have plenty of tuning potential but also a surprising number of exhaust variations. Choosing the correct section keeps the installation straightforward and the finished system properly aligned.
Engine code, drivetrain, body style and model year can all change the downpipe and centre-section arrangement. Compare the product data with the car rather than assuming parts interchange across related Volkswagen Group models.
