Which exhaust.. Beaudesert or Redback ?

[Ronin]

I was googling for some scenarios and came across this thread on another forum.. http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum....cfm?t=1857341

in short, guy takes his audi for service, dealer says the sump plug has been cross-threaded. All pervious services had been done at audi dealerships. Still audi washed their hands off the issue. Guy takes it to the courts but the courts says audi not at fault.

So if dealerships can get away from their own crap , then I got no chance of getting any warranty claim cos I used non nissan seat covers...

i brought a scotts rods Dump pipe, then had a 3" madrel system made up else where and Love the sound! no mufflers in mine

sorry should mention some costs.. $150 for the dump, ( on shelf read to pick up ) and i was charged $460 for the dump back 3" madrel system.. I took my old system off at home and fitted the dump (was a noisy drive to shop LOL :P but that may have saved an hour labour cost

There was actually a lot more to that story.

The owner couldn't say, with 100% certainty, where the car had been serviced as he bought it second hand, nor could he say when the sump plug was stripped as he'd never had reason to inspect it and there were no tell-tale signs, like leaks.

Audi could have handled the situation a bit better but apparently the guy went in with all guns blazing and started the Whirlpool thread before there was any chance of an amicable outcome.

I followed the story at the time as I had an Audi before the Patrol and I used the dealership involved in the saga for services on my car.

Hey guys,
Been watching this thread with a bit of interest i don't yet own a patrol but purchasing a second hand one is in the pipeline and there a few things i want to do, exhaust is on my shortlist (after a few other bits and pieces of NADS), i was told that the taipan vortex exhaust was meant to be pretty good although from what i can see maybe a bit pricey, just wondering if anyone has any experience with these systems?

I'm thinking about the beaudesert exhaust but then read about the 3" exhaust. Seeing we're touring/towing mostly which size would be best or is there bugger all diff

Either 2.75" or 3" for your 3.0L do your research & make up tour own mind. Beaudesert do both so do most places.

Stainless steel or aluminised steel again your choice. Some say stainless last longer, some say oily diesel exhaust will protect aluminised steel so don't bother going stainless.

Some go illegal with no mufflers & cat's or you can go legal with high flow.

It's just like most things there's a load of options. Whichever way you go it'll be a great lung opener for your ride.

I wish I had spent the extra and bought the beaudesert one. 3in seems a little large for this motor now I have one. Nicer note from the beaudsert

I think you'll find Beaudesert only do the 2.75 for the 3l. Too many overboost issues with the 3" so they went a fraction smaller
