how much to fix exhaust?

j4vier

hi
what do people think it is reasonable to pay for fixing an exhaust?
have a 08 corsa, i hear the sound of something bumping into something else as i move over ramps and general bumps on the road..and i was told it could be the exhaust

it shouldnt be major damage really..so does anyone know how much is it likely to cost?

thanks

You could be lucky, it could be just one or two of the rubber rings that holds part of the exhaust up that have failed. If that's all it is, shouldn't cost more than €10-€20. If the exhaust has to replaced, it would probably cost €100-€200 +. Get it looked at asap though.

next week could be too late! one bad speed ramp and it could pull the whole exhaust off!
you could go from needing a 10e rubber grommit/hanger rubber to needing a whole section of exhaust!

why not go to one of the exhaust places today and get a free quote, that way someone is having a look at it and can explain the damage.
most of these now do a free safety checks etc
