Heard an exhaust leak starting about a week ago. I wasn't too concerned because I ordered a new exhaust from CIA. But it's not here, and may not be for a while. Got the car up today and saw the the flex pipe has a crack around it, about 1/5 of the way around it. I'm gonna nee if Gm can replace it for me, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a short-term solution until my new exhaust arrives?

Thanks team.

 

my dealer told me its part of the convertor assembly.

8yr 80,000 warranty on emmisions?

 

they covered mine

 

cool thanks guys.

 

OK, so to answer the real question I had, (temporary fix) for those that may read this later, I went to Canadian Tire and while looking for JB Weld, I found an exhaust repair kit. It included high heat putty (2000 degrees vs JB 600) and a high heat band. I put the putty on the cracked ring of the flex pipe, let it dry. Then I wrapped half of the flax pipe in the band. It all cures to a very hard patch. It sounds normal now, and should last until I get the new exhaust!
