Easy DIY Emergency Exhaust Repair Under £5, GunGum Exhaust Bandage Any Good? (CityBug/C1/Aygo/107)

[@lenpeeters4498]

Been following your highly professional channel for a few months now and I am impressed with the supreme quality of your explanation how to DIY. In fact...because you made clear the city bug is an absolute beast, I purchased one just for the fun of it, A 107. It definitely out performs my Crossfire in performance and handling. I love the little shitter a lot. Thank you for having this channel. Greetings from the Netherlands

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Thanks mate. I’m glad you’re not disappointed with the raw power of the 107 too 💥

[@techtinkerin]

I did a moped exhaust with jubilee clips and baked beans tin. It sort of worked for a bit but in the end I just left it noisy it was actually faster.😄

[@nekite1]

A common way to fix an exhaust - very popular for us bodgers back in the 80's/90's!

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

I’m a motorcycle mechanic/mot tester. Have seen this one a few times tbh haha

[@MickyB76]

Nice 1 mate i was unsure about fitting the exhaust bandage myself but after watching this vid i managed it fine..so thanks for that 🖒

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

The commentary and the video is epic. My back box decided not to stay attached to my middle pipe. So got a 80mm wide 52 mm diameter pipe. One side was 54mm the middle it was attaching to was 50mm. So have tightened one bracket up to as tight as I can, the other needed a couple of turns. I've gun gummed the shite of both joins inside and out. So I hope I've not been a complete dumbass and fixed it, even if it's temporary.

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Cheers mate, and Fixed is fixed 💪

[@simonjj7397]

😂 "permanently repair it with a temporary repair". Another good vid, this one will definitely come in handy. Cheers.

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

🤣 Cheers mate. There’s gonna be a follow up vid to this one in a few weeks too. Sorry for another exhaust vid though 🥱

be honest,you're turning it into a cafe racer bit by bit

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

I’ve been known to race to the cafe occasionally tbh.

[@thhc1744]

Just thought I'd point out an error. You shouldn't have pointed the exhaust tip down, with all the power that weapon is making, its going to lift up the back of the car with the force of the gasses coming out of it. I just hope thhis message reaches you in time🙏🙏

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

That’s a good point. The exhaust tip fell off, but the oversteer from a lightened rear end was fun whilst it lasted.

[@AC-um2mk]

Nah, if you fit it with the tip pointing up you'll be forever doing wheelies when pulling away

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

@@AC-um2mk I should attach it to lever inside the car for thrust vectoring.

[@TheYeminator]

Hi Tim, How long did the repair end up lasting?

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

About 4 month if I remember right 🤔

[@jasondonavich2758]

Im so messy when messing under my car i end up lying on top of tools and even my phone the other day and cracked my screen 😅

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

I have a mate like that. I remember he changed a wishbone for me a few years ago, and half my tools fell down a fucking grid. Took longer to fish them out than to do the job 🤦‍♀️

[@micheals1992]

I'm sure I managed to get a new exhaust back box for about £35 for mine xD. I can imagine in a few months you'll have a new hole near the mounting stud.

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Yea, I want just the pipe from the centre pipe to the box but struggling to get one

[@JAYG6390]

1k miles isn't too bad. Whats the legality of that repair in terms of MOT? Would it pass with one of those on the exhaust, and would it matter at what point along the exhaust you had it (ie is a section near the rear allowed, but towards the front not)? Also, AIYA!

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

As long as it’s secure and not badly leaking it should pass. MOT is not a very strict test, it’s just testing for the minimum standard.

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Also Aiya 👋 🤣

[@JAYG6390]

@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos Nice one, cheers for the info 😁

[@micheals1992]

Chances are they'd just do a leak test. Mot testers aren't allowed to remove anything from the car to inspect it so allot of people will just cover problems to pass the test. It's one reason brake pipes come up on the MOT as "corroded or covered in grease or other material" because allot of people cover them in grease so the MOT tester can't see the condition of the pipes. It's a legal thing on your advisories.

[@markyyyy7]

Nice vid, how long did the bandage last?

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Thanks mate. I took it off a couple of months later in this other video. It was deteriorated but still holding. kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZnFYZWpdpejbrssi=U96xw7g5fSUgyI2-

Did you fit the foil protective bit over the hole properly?

[@johndilloway9762]

Cant think why but you being stupid bloke, I was half expecting you to put a plaster on it just to see if that worked first, 😁I used one of these tempory repairs once and it lasted for 2 mot's, so not really a waste of money, love the video's, there's a lot of truth in stupid.

I’ll try that next time, and thanks mate haha
