So, I pull into my drive way and my brother follows, he pulls up in the garage and says that one of my hangers broke on the drivers side exhaust, I take a look, but I noticed that when I shook it, the exhaust piping didnt move... Oh boy, so I get under there and look around, turns out that it was completely unattached. The weld must have broke. So I pull, and tug, and it comes right off... Turned on the car, and it sounded great I made an appointment to get it rewelded tomorrow, as a temporary solution. Looks like a Dynomax is in my near future

Im lucky it didnt come off while I was driving... that could have been real ugly...

That sucks, but I douth there will be anything there to weld to if it rusted off.

you can get some aftermarket replacments put on for cheap...you can buy the summit turbos for like $15 is it? then a shop will take 1/2 hour to get them in there and put your old tip on the new mufflers, or you can buy new tips too.

Im heading over to the shop tomorrow morning, I will see what happens...

Cars+rust= baaaad. Luckily I got a new exhaust and ypipe put on my car a little while ago. When I first got my car, I think the cat back was rusted off of the ypipe. Boy did it sound mean. Good luck.

if that is dynomax the mufflers have a lifetime warranty, the rest of the exhaust doesn't though

most times its usually just the bottom of the muffler that rots out a hole...the stock exhaust system is stainless steel, so most times the pipes are fine. since your pipe itself has rusted, i would be worried about the rest of the piping leading to that point.

 

[somedude_001]

the problem is that it broke flush with the muffler, therefore it is a failed muffler

Its all welded back up, and since the guy who did it for me said that it is very temporary, and it wouldnt last more then a month (the inside of the muffler does not look good) he didnt charge me anything... Its the stock exhaust, but a Dynomax is soon to be ordered...

i want to install dynomax soon to, but I think i'm going to concentrate on getting the suspension up to par first.
