1991 945 exhaust wanted
 
Does anyone have advice on where I can get a 945 exhaust? I see that Skandix still have genuine Volvo ones for sale, but after Brexit that would be quite an expensive option. Anyone recommended in UK for this part?
Thanks

I got my Volvo catback one from FRF Swansea. Very good and very easy to fit

If your car is a turbo I will dig out the order number for you. Edit ! just realised if it's catback it doesnt matter if it's turbo or N/A

Part number is 31392962

I paid just under £200 including delivery just over a year ago

As above by Mark. Your main dealer or FRF should be able to supply.
Make sure your order the correct fitting kit as there are two available.
One for cars with rear silencer support hooks opposite each other (VO 31372144)
and one for support hooks which are offset (VO 31372148).
Both the exhaust kit and fitting kit are supplied with all the necessary clamps and hangers.

I had a quote from Volvo in Poole - a new genuine exhaust with a fitting kit was £233 or so....

My cost was with a 25% discount from FRF

Follow up - what cat??
 
As a follow up - what cat do folk recommend, bearing in mind that my 945 (1991) is a pre-cat requirements model.
I fitted a BM type approved cat in 2020 and it is rattling already - I suspect the matrix inside has broken.
Is it worth fitting a type approved cat - they are relatively expensive.

Delete it and fit a bit of pipe with the right joints either end, as it is 1991 it isn't an MOT requirement. 50 shades has had the cat deleted as it is a 1991 940 and was not an issue for the MOT and still easily passed the emissions test.

Does anything have to be done with the Lamda stuff if you delete the cat?
When my 1991 240 is ready for an exhaust, I’d like the option.🤔
