    Aagghh Exhaust been eaten by driveshaft

    4 exhaust rubbers decided to fail at the same time leaving my exhaust rubbing on the rear drive shaft. Caught it before too much damage but exhaust is now blowing slightly.
    Havent had time to have a proper look yet. Can the rear section only be replaced or am I looking at a whole new system? What sort of costs involved?

    Just another problem to add to the growing list. Starting to wonder how much longer I gonna be able to afford to keep the beast going.

    Cheers for any help

    Had the same problem myself last year. The rear and forward exhaustpipe is jointed exactly where the CV-joint touches the pipe. A friend of mine welded it together at no cost. Only problem is, its not possible to detach the rear system anymore. Have to change the whole system next time. But thats in the future some day.

      On the coupe the back box pipe touches the inner CV joint, not the middle part.
