And i'm a very unhappy camper. So I got in my car and started it up so I can get going to work. For some reason the car didn't sound right so I got out and put my hand against the exhaust and the back pressure felt a little light. For those of you who had your car for a while, you know your car and when something doesn't feel right. So not sure what it was I take off to work. Slowly this noise gets louder and louder and as i'm about 2 mins from work up the street that my job is on I see a detour (construction) and a cop in the middle of the street directing traffic.

As SOON as I get to the detour, BAM! I hear this loud noise and make a right at the intersection, pull over and sure enough it's what I thought. The pipe connected to the muffler rusted off and was hanging. :madr:

So I shut it off cause the last thing I want is to get pulled over. Up ahead there's 2 other cops parked infront of me. So now i'm pissed that my exhaust broke and that i'm stuck until these cops move. :rant:

They finally leave after a 1/2 hr and I finish driving to work since I was only about 10 mins away. I really don't have the money to fix this and I gotta drive it like this tonight back home.

Depends on the city and here in Montclair, these cops aren't as lenient as other city cops. :hs:

I wasn't as lucky.

The car behind looks very annoyed. :chuckles:



I'll admit that I was kind of annoyed myself with the noise. h:

Hambone

That happened to me when I had my Civic a few years ago. I was actually quite happy because I had a legitimate reason to get a RS*R Exmag exhaust.

Draconius

Happened to me once at a Sear's Autostore.

I went in to ask if I could borrow some tools and no joke the guy goes...I don't think we have any. (As he looks at the autoshop.) :madr:
