Names Chris. I have a 2002 jaguar x-type 2.5. After fixing numerous check engine lights to get it through inspection im onto the exhaust. Hit a major roadbock last night when i couldnt get the Y pipe up over the rear differential. I removed the passenger side rear axle, but still no luck. It seems impossible without dropping the rear end. Andy thoughts? Im driving around with it sounding like an old ford tractor at the moment.

I know you have already found your way to the X-Type tech forum so there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues. I've also put some further info in your exhaust thread.

Hello, Chris,
Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.

welcome to the forum!!!!!!!

 

I posted this in the tech forum, but for reference purposes i ended up cutting off the right (passenger) side of the Y pipe and welding on a 4 inch splice, which allowed enough room to get it up in there. I then just clamped the cut off piece onto the splice and attached the mufflers.
