Sorry to read this Gary, have you considered getting them repaired with a braided style flexi?
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Less than 3 years and not even 5000 miles Dansk flexi failure strikes again. Certainly will not be replaced by the same poor quality rubbish from them this time
Sorry to hear this Alex Yates amongst others had the same issue.
Hes now got a topgear set up they come with a lifetime you own the car warranty. and they offer 10% discount to forum members . lastly they also offer a payment plan option for those times when these things happen just at the wrong time financially.
hope that suggestion helps :thumb:
I spotted a used set of Dansk on ebay a couple of days back, they looked ok (I know my OEM ones will need replacing at some point). its only thanks to this forum that I knew to avoid.....
Waiting for mine to to pop. No doubt they will do at some point. Last time I looked they were both the newest and the most rusty part of the whole car.
It's a shame because the actual back box itself is alright and they produce a decent sound too. Just let down by a serious design flaw on the non-required flexi, that even now, doesn't seem to have been addressed!
i think these ones are without the flex bits so they might be a good buy.
I think they came off a guy on here and he has gone to mild top gear pipes as these are the super sound ones so pretty loud. seem in good condition.
Thanks NLW - thats useful to know. They have sold now.....As I am planning to keep the car long-term, I think I will make the investment in a Topgear system when the time comes.....
Replacement is nice but v expensive and sometimes unnecessary... instead you can get them refurbished and or bypassed while you're at it!

Photos of the bottom seams being welded in the link are actually of my car. Paul does a brilliant job and literally save me hundreds if not over a thousand quid when is all I needed was a bit of welding to save the boxes!
Car sounds amazing after the work... proper flat six Porsche soundtrack!!
