so my girlfriends car (and mine) a nissan pulsar Q has just got a problem it was pretty crazy to see it but the last muffler has uhh broken? from the end closest to the engine can i get it welded back up or do i need a hole new exhaust tip welded on, i mean the car sounds way louder obviously for the junk it is haha can anyone tell me where to go or what

cheers

Any exhaust shop can usually weld up leaks or use a special wrap that seals the pipe. Shouldn't need a new muffler/tip or anything, unless the hole is massive.

If the muffler has completely broken off then it can be simply welded and reattached, just get the pros to do it, won't cost too much.

Hope this helps

yeah completely came off its only on the car because of it being attached to the car lol

how has it come off? was it the old weld broke? pipe rusted through? muffler wasn't welded to the pipe and the clamp has come off?

if it was rusted through then it will need a new exhaust system as you won't be able to weld the muffler to the rusted pipe. you will end up with more holes than when you started.

if the weld broke then you could get it welded again, but you would also need to sort out why it broke to start with. check whether it is missing some of the rubber mounts.

yeah it broke on the weld from what it looked like, the rubber mounts seem to be attached (i think it broke cause of her women drivingness haha) ill have alook at the mounts again cause it wobbles
