i read somewhere on here that its under warrenty, but i was just told that because the cat was still ok, it was not a warrenty prob.so they say its $1300.00 to fix the prob.

 

whoa whoa whoa....what? you're talking about the downpipe right? from the exhaust man. to the exhaust itself? ive had to have 2 replaced because they keep breaking, and it IS in fact covered under warranty. don't let them bullshit you...

 

i took it in cause the exhaust was pinging at an idle, like somebody banging a quarter of of it. they say the pipe has a crack in it under that spring looking thing just after the manifold, isn't that part of the cat?

 

Factory warranty is factory warranty it should be covered

 

lol no...thats the flexpipe...that's what kept breaking on mine. the cat is that big thing just past it. but if your car is under warranty and the exhaust is all still stock, then they HAVE to fix it. I'm serious...don't get screwed. go to another dealer if you have to...

 

That is a warranty repair. Try your best with the dealer...... again.
If you're brushed-off, contact GM Canada and make a stink about it........in a profesional manner.
Dealerships don't like having GM breathing down their necks.........they avoid it at all costs.

 

and if anthing buy an aftermarket one... only like $150 or so

 

my flex pipe broke and they replaced it under warranty, a 2 weeks later I put a CA 3" header and downpipe on. Had the replace the pipe including cat from just after the header to just after the cat. Brought it to them 3 times because it was intermediate. Never threw a code

also $1300!!! u could do it for less than $500(estimate) buying all the parts from the dealer and installing it urself but it is under warranty

 

I had meinekee put on a customer flex pipe and downpipe for 100 bucks including labor.

 

i have an appointment on tues at another dealer, if they don't replace it i may be asking about different exhaust. is there a downside to headers and no cat?

 

Hehehe........ He's got Crack in his pipe! LOL!

 

i had no problem having it covered under warrantee this time, but gotta wait about 10 days for the parts to come in. thanks for all the input.

 

its a common problem just ask the redline guys... they shoudl cover it

 

i'm thinking the motor mounts may be our prob, eurethane be a good idea might

 

most def...

 

finally got it fixed, it only had an inch of metal left holding it on.
