Land Rover Part Number: ESR225 - Y-Shaped Downpipe Assembly
ESR225 is a Y-shaped downpipe assembly fitted to the exhaust system of Discovery 1 models with the 3.5 V8 EFI petrol engine when no catalytic converter is fitted. The assembly collects exhaust flow from the manifold outlets and directs it into the downstream exhaust pipework; for non-cat configurations it provides the required flanges, routing for downstream pipe connections and any sensor bosses that apply. Correct alignment of the flanges, gaskets and hangers is required to achieve a gas-tight seal and to prevent exhaust leaks or stress on adjacent components. Installation commonly involves removal of the exhaust manifolds or front pipe to access mounting faces and studs, so matching manifold flange faces and replacement of any worn gaskets or studs is recommended when replacing this assembly. The part is intended for Discovery 1 3.5 V8 EFI petrol applications built in the specified VIN range and must be checked against vehicle details before purchase and fitting.

Frequently Asked Questions
The ESR225 downpipe joins the exhaust manifold outlets on the 3.5 V8 EFI cylinder heads into a single Y-shaped section that carries exhaust gases towards the rear of the vehicle. Fitted where no catalytic converter is present, it supplies the correct flanges, routing and sensor bosses for the downstream pipework. When fitting, ensure flange faces, gaskets and hangers align correctly to avoid leaks; access often requires removal of the manifolds or front pipe, so inspect and replace any worn gaskets or studs during replacement.

Replace the downpipe if it is damaged, heavily corroded or leaking, or if flange faces or studs are too worn to seal correctly. Inspect the assembly whenever exhaust work is carried out and replace if fitment cannot be achieved without risking exhaust leaks or stress to adjacent components.
