Type 25 Syncro Exhaust Manifold (Cylinder 1 To 3) - 1985-92 - 2100cc Waterboxer (SR, MV + DJ Engine Code)

This replacement standard exhaust front pipe is fitted between cylinder 3 and the exhaust system on Volkswagen Type 25 / T3 SYNCRO models only, manufactured from November 1985 to July 1992 and fitted with 2100cc DJ, SR or MV Waterboxer petrol engines.

Located at the front section of the exhaust system, this pipe carries exhaust gases from the cylinder 3 outlet into the front muffler section. Due to the unique four-wheel-drive drivetrain layout on SYNCRO models, this pipe features a SYNCRO-specific shape and routing, ensuring correct clearance around drivetrain components while maintaining proper exhaust flow and back pressure.

This is a direct-fit standard replacement, manufactured to original specifications, making it ideal for replacing rusted, cracked, or leaking original pipes. Correct fitment at this point in the system is essential for engine performance, exhaust sealing, and noise control on 2.1 Waterboxer engines.
