NCT Fail: Hole in middle silencer.

CrazyMark · 2012-08-08 18:46:15

So I failed my NCT today, due to a hole in the middle silencer in the exhaust. Is this something that could be patched up, or do I need to go about buying a new one? Car is a Civic Aerodeck MC2. Thanks.

As it happens, I opened a new thread on the same issue today - clicky

One of the responses is below

halfords sell a tar bandage that you simply wrap around the affected section. works fine for small holes. if in doubt, add some gun gum and pipe clamp.

I repaired my exhaust a few years ago like this and it went through two more NCTs
