Ever noticed when driving behing a cl-s the exhast pipes skake and move up and down a lot

any way to fix this??

 

nope....exhaust hangers are made of rubber

 

so i have to live w/ it??

 

muffler shop..and have them weld somethin on

 

is that much of an issue?

 

it looks cheap when they are like that

 

Just remember what cars we drive They are what they are....

 

ita a 30k car, it shouldnt do this

 

If people are behind me then whatever

 

my ct exhaust shakes alot but i used snap ties and secured the hangers like that... it helped a lil.

 

if you think that's bad...

I was once behind a CL without mudflaps...cruising at around 70...when I got beside him I noticed that air was getting caught by the lip of the rear bumper, which caused it to shudder severly...the whole corner of the bumper was flapping in the wind!!! that shiz looked bunk! I'm sure the guy didn't even notice it.

 

Well, exhaust piping has to move at leats a little due to the movement of the engine. I usually notice most cars do it especially when driving over ruts in the road that cause the body to flex back and forth. I wouldn't care about it until it falls off. Or, just run dumps and noone will see it.

 

I had my muff shop weld another hanger close to the pipe split...barely moves now.

 

i used these metal clamps that not only stopped the sway of the exhaust but also pick it up and put them into the exhaust holes. I think they have brackets so i was also able to move the mufflers side to side.

 

Had a friend mentiuon to me tonight how mine (Thermal R&D) shake when I go over bumpy areas. I have wiggled them myself and it was not that much play. It's not like some cars where they move all over the place. Pretty much every car I have seen with Dual exhaust outlets have this problem even my ex g/f's moms 2k Lex GS3.

 

my buddy also commented (when driving behind me one day) that my TL-S exhaust system shakes all over the place... I've driven behind other TL owners and have noticed similar things. I had him drive my car one day, I drove his.. and I saw my exhaust swingin' all over the place... ugh .. i NEVER notice this on any other cars on the road!!! what the hell is up w/ this? Caddy's, Nissan Alty's... you name it.. none of their exhausts shake this bad

 

ya it looks like crap.

 

o well, what can ya do

 

its not that annoying i guess it grows on u

 

Zapata talks as if we drive American cars...lol

 

I know what the car IS and ISN"T That is all...... i love my car. I drove my brother's civic ex sedan today. Yipes.....i say again, I LOVE MY CAR.
