Exhaust Weld Repair in Slough. Blowing Mid Sections, MOT Saved
Not everyone with a blowing exhaust needs a full new system. A lot of the time, the rest of the exhaust is sound and the failure is a single seam, a rotted patch the size of a 50p, a joint between two sections or a hole around a flexi pipe. We weld and repair existing exhausts properly at our Slough workshop. Done well, it gets the car through MOT and lasts another couple of winters at a fraction of the cost of a full replacement.
This is repair, not a sports exhaust upgrade. If you actually want a sports cat-back, a decat or a custom stainless system that is a separate conversation. This is the page for owners around Berkshire who heard the exhaust start to blow on the way home and want it fixed without buying a a fair amount cat-back system.
What we repair every week at Onyx Slough
- Blowing flexi pipe at the front section. common on Vauxhall Astra and Insignia, Ford Focus, Nissan Qashqai. New flexi welded in cleanly, often same day
- Rotted patches on the mid section. the soft middle of a 6 to 10 year old exhaust where road salt has done its worst. Cut out and patched with stainless plate where the rest of the pipe is sound
- Joint failures between sections. ovality, missing clamps, blown gaskets. Re-welded or re-clamped properly so it does not just blow again in 3000 miles
- Cracked downpipe brackets. the exhaust drops because the bracket has snapped. Welded back to chassis, not zip-tied
- Holes around lambda or NOx sensor bosses. a known failure point as the boss corrodes. New boss welded in, sensor refit
- Cat box outer skin perforation. where the outer can is rotted but the substrate inside is sound. We can patch the outer skin without scrapping a working cat
When weld repair is the right call (and when it is not)
Repair is the right call when the rest of the system is in solid condition and the failure is localised. You see it on cars 5 to 10 years old where the middle has gone but the back box and cat are fine, or on cars where the joint between the cat-back and mid pipe has corroded around the clamp.
Repair is the wrong call when the entire exhaust is rotted, when patches keep blowing in different places within months, or when you are looking at the third weld in two years. At that point a new mid-section assembly costs less than the labour we keep spending on patches. We will tell you honestly which side of that line your exhaust is on before quoting. Trusted Berkshire workshop, not in the business of selling exhausts you do not need.
Cars and vans we exhaust repair most weeks
Older Vauxhall Astra and Insignia, Ford Fiesta and Focus, BMW 3 and 5 series E and F generation, Vauxhall Vivaro, Ford Transit Custom, VW Transporter T5 and T6, Mercedes Sprinter. Plus a steady stream of older diesels around Slough and Heathrow where the cat or DPF section is still doing its job but the surrounding pipe has rotted around it.
