My wife's 2.6 80 cabby exhaust is shot, the front pipes mostly,the problem is on trying to get a replacement the garage say the part no,s are for an automatic,but the car is a Manuel,so I am to say the least a little confused. Has anyone else come across this before,or has anyone got an exhaust or parts of they want to sell.

The front pipes on some V6s also contain the cats so if you are planning on buying new the price is gonna hurt,a lot.Depends what year your car is.You may find that some/most/all the catalyst material has blown out of it over the years(the cats on v6s can't be as good quality as fitted to s2/s4/s6,never seen it on one of those),has it failed the mot on emissions? -
The car did not fail the last MOT which was 6 months ago, and it is an N reg car,but I have to say it has running issues, the temperature is always showing low on the gauge,
but if you leave it running it will clime and the fan will cut in.
Lambdas have been replaced but not the thermostat.Comment

I believe the cats on the cabriolet V6 are not as bad as on the V6's with double cats, cabriolet only has one.
But in your case the piece between the EM and cat is shot? That is not very common I believe.Comment
