I have now replaced my center and rear sections. I am thinking that the front section may need to be replaced in the coming months.
I don't see a front section on offer in the shop - can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks - looks like I will replace the cold start section - so is that a down pipe & a short piece?

If you plan to retain the cold start, the long pipe goes from manifold to the valve and then the short section goes to the first silencer.

Alternatively, get a single front pipe from a three piece exhaust and bypass the valve. If you don't use the valve then removing it will eliminate the chances of it going wrong in future.

Did this, reduced the list of things that make my bongo "misbehave"
