Intermediate Silencer for 4.0 Celebration

[davidr]

Does anyone know of a source of replacement exhaust parts? A member has contacted me because his car had an advisory on its MOT for a small hole in the driver's side intermediate silencer. Of course, this is no longer available from Jaguar and whilst complete after-market systems are possible the member is having trouble finding a replacement part.
We believe the part number is EBC11128.
Any ideas?

Small hole? Gun gum? - £4 from Halfords...

They could fix the problem once and for all, by fitting bypass pipes:

I've found with exhausts parts for my Rover, that relying on the OEM part number is often no good so you have to search for generic terms like 'XJS Exhaust' and then sift out all the parts that might be what you need.

Is there a difference between the exhausts fitted to 4.0L XJSs? - I assume if there is it's that the later ones had a different O2 sensor set up?

Anyway - if there's no difference then this may work (It's listed as being for cars up to 06/19940;

It could be worth speaking to that company to see if they've got a suitable part anyway.

I fitted those to my XJR-S, the noise was epic!
