Exhaust rattle from tips
 
I bought a tsudo exhaust from se motors about a little over a year ago and just about 4 months ago it started making a rattle from the back of my exhaust. I found the problem and realized its from my tips. I went to some shops and said it was a manufacture problem and they couldn't fix it. I tried calling semotors as I encountered the problem and they told me they would replace it because of lifetime warranty but month after month they tell me they don't have any yet and that I will need to continue to wait. Any help on what I can do? I will try and post up videos of the exhaust later today

Maybe you can try to contact tsudo directly and see if they can send you a set to you from their facility. I don't think you have to go back to the shop you bought them from. They may just ask for proof of purchase and evidence of damage(pics). If you can contact them or theyre not wiling to work it out, then maybe waiting would be the only option for the least.

I tried their website but apparently the number they have is not the correct number. They said they weren't tsudo-performance. I left an email but don't know if it is also not them

I had same problem with some cheap tips I have, realized that some pieces that were supposed to be welded together came apart and were clanging together... After a lil JB weld, all is now good

Well, now, back in the day ...... if they were banging against something, we would use a piece of baling wire to pull them over; if they were rattling inside of themselves, we would jam a wedge in there.......the "redneck" solution .......:D

Ha! I did that to my '73 2002 after getting a fixit ticket. Passed the CHP check of whether it was "fixed" and it was still like that a few years on when the motor crapped out and I scrapped the car.
