You can do this as a short term fix, or get stiffer exhaust hangers. I have some stiff hangers, they work fairly well, but they're a bitch to work with if you constantly swap exhausts like some people i know (cue @
Tcoat)
Another thing you can do is use hose clamps on the metal hangers from the car and the exhaust to get it to sit differently and stay put.
I'd recommend investing in a jack, jack stands and some basic socket and crescent wrenches if you have the space for them. This way, you spend 300 or less and can save money in the long term doing whatever work you're comfortable with.
Though, kind of a **** move by the dealer to not take the 30 seconds and make the adjustment for you.
