    Things that go PING in the night

    I went for a drive, took a corner pretty hard and heard a nice loud 'PING' and wasn't sure what gave way as the car drove fine.

    Saw that my exhaust tips were hanging a bit lower than normal, peeked underneath and saw this





    Hanger snapped in half from the stress?

    So does anyone have one laying around?

    I was expecting detonation carnage. Just find a hose clamp as a temp fix.

      get your hangers from the dealer or through BLUNT (dealer parts, but cheaper) i learned that the aftermarket ones were crap and did not hold up and streaaaached to hell in a few weeks. total crap!
