Hi everyone, i have a leak in my exhaust system thats sounds like its coming from the manifold or the join from the manifold to the cat.
Could anyone tell me the best way to access the flexi join as it seems very tight and hard to get to. would it be easier access from the top or bottom?

There is no easy access, its probably best up on some proper lifts and then accessed from underneath.
Do 180's have a flexi join?

Well if you want to trust kwak fit, but I'm sure that why it's blowing now anyway if you let those muppets near it.
I'd take it to a proper independent exhaust fitter who'll do the job properly
