Yes! I have a maxim I believe in ( if it works don’t fix it ) and if it goes in the future I’ll fix it then, if you can weld get a MIG welder and if you can’t weld buy one and and learn, MIG welding is the easiest and will save you thousands over the years ( I’m sure my cat could mig weld if I bothered to teach him) or take it to an exhaust garage and tell them exactly what you want them to do, someone on the internet said Land Rover wanted £2500 to replace the whole DPF box, good luck.
If yours has the same problem then I imagine that any competent garage or exhaust shop could tackle the job for a fraction of LR prices and they will have a car lift, thanks anyway, Steve.
@@steviecuz2396 cheers for that, getting the shield bashed back into shape, then getting welded back on, and two large jubilee clips so it doesnt fall off again!!!
I did the exact same operation on my evoque from 18 today... It dosent feel right to weld on a car from 2018, Realy poor quality 🙄 Dont know if the environment here in Sweden makes it worse, but obviously more people have the same issue.... 🙄🤦
I’ve never had a new car and don’t expect used cars to be without faults so I’ve repaired faults all my driving life, it’s part of the game so live with it and enjoy the learning process and if you can pass on what you’ve learned, good luck Steve…….
Amazing job. Are you offering this service? I was quoted a ridiculous amount from Land Rover
Great video, same has happened to mine. Not got a welding machine 😏
Got the same problem but higher up on the DPF downpipe…
@@OoOJakeOoO send me a picture of the area
@@steviecuz2396 can you send images via RUclips?
I’ve still got a humming at 1600 revs and it’s driving me nuts, is there any chance you can get a photo of the area that’s the problem.
Did you only replace one side ?

Yep Land Rover just quoted me £2,200, going to get a local garage to weld it back on. Can you recall the size of the new bolts Stevie? Cheers Bob
The 4 small brackets that break off the body of the exhaust box are 10 mm, encapsulated nuts, I re tapped mine and then welded them back on

I bet it rattles at 16,000 revs😂
Only when it’s warm, is this a common problem? I’d love to know what causes it, do you know?
