Type 25 Exhaust Silencer - 1986-92 - 1700cc Diesel (KY Engine Code)

This exhaust silencer is a direct replacement for Volkswagen T3 / Type 25 buses fitted with the 1.7 diesel KY engine. The silencer is responsible for reducing exhaust noise while maintaining correct exhaust back pressure, helping the engine run smoothly, quietly, and efficiently.

Designed to original dimensions, this silencer restores factory-style sound levels without restricting exhaust flow. A worn or corroded silencer can lead to excessive noise, rattles, exhaust leaks, and failed MOTs. Replacing it ensures quieter operation, improved driving comfort, and proper exhaust system function.

Ideal for maintenance, repairs, or restorations, this unit fits directly in place of the original silencer on KY diesel models.
