2001 E280 exhaust question
 

Hi


If I replace the exhaust on my E280 I have been told by a local mot testing station in the UK that I do not need cats fitted, because I will be running on Lpg
I am looking at fitting a new stainless steel system am I right in thinking I will still need the o2 sensors fitted

I would go back to the fitter of the LPG system and have him confirm-----this way if you fail a test or whatever it's not your euro!!

I purchased the car with it installed so not an option,i will have a chat with the exhaust people and report back

There where several leaks /holes in the exhaust system mainly on the right-hand side one around the 02 sensor / and flexi joint the left cat had a blow at the gasket all now fixed need to check for codes now

LPG or not, your car was originally fitted with Cats, therefore you must have cats (or at least appear to have them).
