Hello!

I'm no mechanic, but I've bought a Magnex rear pipe for my MY01 and plan on changing it myself. Unfortunately, I don't have access to a ramp, so will have to get a handy mate to hold the car up for me (or just jack it!).

My question is a simple one - Do I only need a bog standard spanner, or is there any other tool required? Also, what size spanner? I'm hoping the bolts shouldn't be too hard to undo since the car's only 2 months old.

TIA

Bryn

 

Hi Bryn,

I fitted a new magnex exhaust bb the other week on a MY98 and i needed a 14mm spanner for the standard nuts and a screw driver to prise the rubbers of the hangers. It was very easy but i did have it on ramps. I hope this helps you.

Hiya Bryn and Jason!

Ramps are the way to go, here's a tip for you - use washing up liquid on the rubbers, they just slide on, GT85 works well too!

Thanks guys.

Jamie - Been told I'll get it back from the garage on Wednesday subject to road test. About time!

 

That's pretty good isn't it! Hope it is ok when you get it back, let me know.
