Location of Exhaust hangers/Straps
Does anyone have a diagram or photo they could share of the different support points for the 2.5 exhaust please?
I plan on fixing the noise this weekend and it would be a great help to know where I should start looking.

See Items 13 and 9 in the Xpart/Rimmer drawing.
Those are the only hangers on the system. There are also steel brackets (item 3). TC |

Now the weather is dry, I've finally got under the car and had a look.
It seems as if the rubbery hanger thing that is attached to the back box is severely perished. My first instinct is that to replace it I'll need to take the rear bumper off. Is that right, or is there a simpler way to get access ?

Just put the car on ramps if you can, & replace them, they just pull off, or you can cut the remains off. You can do it on your back, if you're flexible enough
