HOLE in my exhaust!!?
2 Attachment(s)
So as I was cleaning my car, I wanted to check the undercarriage to see if anything looked out of place. I very briefly scanned my exhaust pipes and notice a small hole:cry:!! If I were to guess, I would say the hole would be the size of a safety pin. I'm wondering if this will hurt me sooner or later.
Anything I can t do to patch it or fix it? What do you guys think? Exhaust: invidia N1 catback |
Not a huge issue you can always get the local muffler shop to touch up the welding a bit.
Sent from my Q10 |
Not a big deal, as stated find about any local muffler shop and they'll be able to fix it.
|
Put a bubble gum on it just like the rocketeer movie. Hahah joke! :)
Yeah thats an easy fix |
Is the hole through the pipe? If not I'd just fill it with JB Weld and be done with it. If it's through it's gonna have to be ground-out and rewelded as a hole in the exhaust is potentially dangerous. Not only that, it could lead to further corrosion.

or you can try exhaust sealant selling @ auto part. it's really small hole so it should work
|
I would send some pictures to invidia and see what they have to say, first.
Although for the work involved on a replacement I think you may find a simple exhaust leak fix at a local auto parts store or JB weld may do the job just fine. I would be more concerned if it was nearest the engine like on the exhaust manifold. |
this would be a warranty issue and invidia should replace it for you. but if you don't want to go through the trouble of removing the header then just have a muffler shop or any one with a welder plug the hole. just know that once you do this your warranty is out the door.

If it's not actually leaking I wouldn't even sweat it. If it is, I still probably wouldn't sweat it.
