Shaungreenlupo Posted August 28, 2019 Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 Hello I am new to this site so first of all hello all, I have a 2000 lupo 1.4s and my exhaust is blowing from the sleeve that covers the join in the middle and I’m wondering if anyone’s experienced the same. Going to put a new sleeve on with fitting paste but I’m just hoping there’s no big holes behind the original one feeling power loss due to this. as far as I know it’s the only problem with the car, it was all good when I first got it but This air leak must of started when I got the car and driving it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarosa Posted August 28, 2019 Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 Welcome! An exhaust is a consumable item at the end of the day. I wouldn’t worry to much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2 Posted August 29, 2019 Report Share Posted August 29, 2019 Yes those sleeves or joints are a right pain. The system is usually a type of stainless steel, but the joins are good 'ol rusty flavoured steel. So the system lasts but the join doesn't! They're about £7 on ebay and last about 3 years. Someone makes stainless types but they're about £30. Welcome to club lupo! cars pics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
