You can buy a joining pipe I did this on mine as it was blowing really bad but only the realise that the back box it bigger then the pipe it joins to so I'll need to get a new exhaust at some point. But it's fine for now

My exhaust has been quite noisy as well lately. When I got under the car to check what's going on I found nothing - everything is tight. Turning on the engine revealed that the part making noise is the middle muffler (photos attached).
It looks like it has outer layers missing, like they rusted away. Or removed intentionally. And if you grab and hold it the noise disappears, so the sound probably comes from it vibrating. Did this ever happen to anyone? |

Mine split at the flange by the rear wheel. £400 for a custom made cat-back exhaust in 304 grade stainless steel.
Bargain. |

I had the same issue with mine. Luckily I had a bit of flange left on both of the pipes so I just bought two split flanges and screwed them on tight right behind the old flanges (or what was left of them). When I clamped the split flanges on, I made sure that they were offset from the original flanges so that I could send a long bolt through without obstruction from one split flange to the other. Before squeezing them together I put a new gasket in and lathered a bunch of high temp gasket sealer in for good measure. It's now been a year and my exhaust is still quiet. Definitely a short term fix though.
By split flange, this is what I mean: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Exhaust-Repa...JTGntF&vxp=mtr

No, the price listed on this email listing is ridiculous. I think I paid $20 per item for my fix at my local Partsource store
