    Exhaust Flexy Sections?

    The Flexy section at the bottom of my 034 downpipe is leaking really badly. Its welded to the downpipe so not an easy fix. Do I really need a flex section here? Is it there because its a fabricated tubular DP? Can I have the flexy fitted with a pair of V bands so it can be replaced without removing the DP? Or maybe better to have it fitted to the centre section? Does anyone know a place in Surrey/ Sussex border area that can do the work for me? I'll probably take this opportunity to change the rear box for a bigger one anyway.

    Well I received my 034 down pipe 2 years back, I fitted it and found it leaked I had to remove and weld the inside part close to the vband clamp been fine since

      The leak is coming through the braided part so I'm pretty sure the flex is broken inside that, I'll have to take it off and inspect.
