What is an axle-back exhaust and what does it do?

An axle-back exhaust system replaces the muffler and tailpipe section of your vehicle's exhaust system. This Remus axle-back is designed to change the sound of your 2012 Audi A3 Sedan, typically making it sportier and more aggressive, while also potentially improving exhaust flow.

Do I need to buy anything else to install this exhaust?

Yes, this Remus axle-back exhaust system requires the separate purchase of compatible Remus tail pipes. The axle-back unit itself does not include the visible tail pipes.

What material is this exhaust made from?

This Remus axle-back exhaust is constructed from stainless steel. This material is chosen for its strength and resistance to corrosion, which is important for exhaust components exposed to the elements.

About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to give your 2012 Audi A3 Sedan with the 1.4L CMPA, CPVA, or CXSA engine a more engaging exhaust note, this Remus axle-back exhaust system is a solid option. This part replaces the factory muffler section, allowing for a freer-flowing exhaust path that changes the sound character of your car. It's designed to bolt directly onto the existing exhaust system, making installation straightforward for someone familiar with exhaust work.

Remus is known for well-built exhaust components, and this axle-back is no exception. It's constructed from stainless steel, which is important for longevity as it resists corrosion from road salt and moisture. While this system changes the sound, it's important to note that it requires separate Remus tail pipes to complete the installation and achieve the desired look and final sound tuning. This means you'll need to select the tail pipe style that best suits your aesthetic preferences and sound goals.

When installing this axle-back, ensure you have the correct Remus tail pipes for your specific vehicle and desired look. It's always a good idea to check the manufacturer's installation instructions for any specific torque recommendations or alignment tips to ensure a perfect fit and optimal performance. This system is designed to integrate with your factory exhaust system ahead of the muffler, so no cutting or welding is typically required for the main axle-back installation itself.
