Hello
I think this is cracked/leaking on my car, I will look tonight, there is exhaust fumes at the front of car and in cabin, not bad,

Is it a difficult job to replace? I was looking last night but could only see a pipe on the drivers side of the engine at the back which resembles the egr pipe, I will look from underneath this evening

Thanks
 
Thanks I've seen that service bulletin, however I'm outside the time limit, my car is November 2008, I had no luck in looking for the sunroof recall so I doubt if this will cover me
 
They'll charge £500 to repair. On a 2008 you're better of spending the money on the DPF and egr solved permanently with tuning. We blank them at the exhaust manifold so even if the pipe is cracked, it doesn't matter as there's nothing travelling inside it.

Im guessing an egr remap is needed after the blanking. Something im looking at as the wife thinks there is a leak somewhere.

To provide an update, i bought the repair kit from holdcroft honda, and fitted on saturday, not too bad of a job, small bit of ripping and had to drain the coolant. Fahad, you may know or have seen, do these pipes ever block with soot on cars, the one i removed only had a light coating of black on the inside of it, i wonder is this a good indication?
 
Yes that sounds normal.
 
Yes but if it’s jammed open or cracked pipe then you’ll still have an issue.
