Exhaust Volkswagen Beetle

Volkswagen Beetle exhausts come in various types including rear silencers, complete exhaust systems, and sport exhausts. They are often made from high-durability stainless steel (AISI 304) with pipe diameters ranging from 60 mm to 120 mm and feature double outlets sized between 70 mm and 100 mm. These exhausts are compatible with petrol engines like 1.6 100 HP and 1.8 Turbo 150 HP, as well as diesel engines such as 1.9 TDi (90-105 HP) and 2.0 TDi (103 kW).

Exhaust systems for the VW Beetle typically use stainless steel AISI 304/1.4301 for corrosion resistance and durability, though some original silencers are made of steel. Pipe diameters range from 60 to 70 mm with dual round outlets between 73 to 100 mm. Many sport exhausts are CE certified for compliance and quality assurance.

Compatibility depends on the engine type and model year. Exhausts are designed for petrol engines such as:

• 1.6 100 HP AWH petrol engine
• 1.8 Turbo 150 HP petrol engine

and diesel engines including:

• 1.9 TDi 90-105 HP (ALH, ATD, BEW, AXR, BSW)
• 2.0 TDi 103 kW

Make sure to select the exhaust that matches your engine’s power and type. Checking specific compatibility for Beetle generations (New Beetle 1998-2010 and type 16/5C post-2012) is recommended.

Many VW Beetle sport exhaust systems have European CE type approval (including Swiss approval), ensuring compliance with applicable environmental and safety standards. This certification guarantees that the exhaust systems are legally compliant and safe to use on public roads in Europe.

Installation often involves cutting and connecting pipes with optional use of 60 mm diameter clamps. Some original or original-type exhausts require specific collars or mounting kits. Installation should follow manufacturer instructions carefully to ensure tight connections and proper functioning.

Price varies depending on type and features:

• Standard/original silencers for diesel engines start around €220
• Sport exhausts and duplex stainless steel systems range approximately from €450 to over €600
• Custom stainless steel performance exhausts may take several weeks to manufacture and vary in price accordingly

Prices often include VAT and may be available with promotional offers depending on the supplier. Always check compatibility and product details before purchase.

Yes, there are sport exhausts featuring duplex or dual outlets in stainless steel, with outlet sizes typically between 73 mm and 90 mm. These provide an enhanced aesthetic and sometimes a sportier sound while maintaining regulatory compliance. Examples include models with offset 80 mm round exhaust tips approved for certain 2.0 TDi models.

To select the correct exhaust, consider the following:

• Your vehicle model and production year (e.g., New Beetle 1998-2010 or type 16/5C from 2012 onwards)
• Engine type and power output (petrol or diesel specifics)
• Exhaust pipe diameter and outlet style
• Compliance with local regulations and presence of catalytic converters

Consult reliable supplier resources and check detailed product descriptions to confirm compatibility before purchasing. Professional installation is recommended for optimal results and compliance.
