Excellent content, some folks fail to understand you can go to multiple auto places that SHOULD have what you're looking for to only have everything BUT what you specifically need. When you live far from these places it makes finding the right components all the more crucial. The tips you shared like the C clamp vice grip trick will be extremely useful in the near future! Thanks for sharing.
Just had the same thoughts about the video, all steps are super well explained. I need to repair my more ancient 2003 Suzuki Ignis and I borrowed some nice ideas from the video 😀
Great tip. Only thing that I would add is some Prematex 80335 tailpipe sealer around the pipes before installing the pipes. I even use it on new installs as it takes care of small leaks. I have also done this repair with soup and soda cans. Good video. Happy Motoring.
6:40 The only thing I would add is to rotate the clamp so that no bolt(s) are lower than the pipe. This is so that you travel over anything in the road, it does not rip off the clamps. Excellent video!
I used that technique also for my exhaust..What I did is I am putting high temp silicone gasket maker on the old pipe, then insert the new one..to give a better seal.
Well online doesn't bring your part right then, or even that day. It's wild the things y'all critique without even thinking of the many reasons that a person would go to an auto parts store, opposed to online every single time. Why comment such nonsense.

nvm, i see where the pipe im asking about came from. autozone did have it, i just failed to notice that it was indeed the right part i was after. *size may not had been in stock* but they do indeed carry 2 1/8" piping. just must be clampable.
So appreciate both the pipe repair video, as well as the usual greedy BS you get from the people you pay taxes to who won’t do what they are supposed to do (repair the pot hole), but they have plenty of time to harass you.
You could eliminate most of that work by using three overlapping shells. No cutting. See "Instructables - DIY Exhaust Repairs - Beagles" Cannot add a direct link or my post will be deleted.
I believe you need a digital caliper to measure the outside diameter of the pipe that's on the car...then you need to match that size with the INSIDE diameter of the repair piece...does this sound correct?
Guys referring to book knowledge not experience. You can but the right connector with it's ID matching the OD of the two sections . But then you stop by the store and realize a the connectors go from 2 /2 straight to 3". That's why he had to bend open the U clamp and then use a c clamp to help it close back again.
After watching 3 videos that were near to fully useless I found your video which was concise and included some very helpful information. Thanks!
Glad to help, Thank you for letting me know.

In the UK, wish we had car parts shops that stock that gr8 random selection of exhaust pipes!
Terrific, detailed, instructional video yet short and concise. Just what I needed to repair my ancient 2007 Toyota Yaris exhaust leak.....thank you!
Thank you, glad to hear..

I work in the same field... I love you from the country of Iraq
Good job on the video. Very well explained and narrated. Thank you.
More videos please.
Thank you for the warm words and support..
This was exactly what I needed to see. Thank you so much!
Your welcome..hope it works out for you.

No just no. Check temp ratings then look a catalytic converter temps. If its that pitted use muffler cement.
This is actually really helpful. Thank you
In memphis i walk everywhere with pipe
You forgot the "muffler cement" to seal any pppt, pppt leaks sealing those connections completely.,
A hacksaw will take hours to get through the pipe, I recommend the cutter or saw-zaw
You can just buy the correct piece of pipe with bolts ready to fit for $10 online saves alot of work 🕵️

You can also use soapy water to check for leaks
Good job
great tips. thank you
Great tip 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🤣
Thanks for the exhaust repair tip. Looks like you are in Edmonton northside
Not if he went to Advance Auto Parts (2':24)...U.S. is my guess.
Put leak blower on tailpipe and spay all joints with soapy water
Sounds good. Thanks
Great video
nvm, i see where the pipe im asking about came from.
autozone did have it, i just failed to notice that it was indeed
the right part i was after. *size may not had been in stock* but
they do indeed carry 2 1/8" piping. just must be clampable.
Glad to hear.. usually if u go around the stores someone will have it..
I didn`t know Paul Stanley from Kiss made car videos lmao
Don't tell anyone.. times are tough..
Will this repair pass a smog test? Or is this only to keep you from getting pulled over?
It should pass the test, as long as it's not leaking.
Can I do this repair for an exhaust pipe flange that’s rusted beyond repair?
It depends if u have a good full circle..
even if its very rusty it will work.
if the pipe is not very smooth i would put red RTV for a better seal.
Lol, yeah stick your ear real close to the exhaust to listen for leaks 😂
*ream out. Not ring out. Nice video
Thank you
X-haust.🤟🏻

Don't get me started on these inspectors.. thank you for your nice comment..
Thanks Paul Stanley from kiss lol
1) wear gloves
2) use soapy water to check for leaks. do not get your face close to the exhaust
You forgot the sealant. That would guarantee no leaks.

Hearing your voice so irritated.. is that how you talk ..
I actually enjoy listening to him
creepy voice
If you bought the right sizes, in the first place...You wouldn't have to go thru all those unnecessary steps and have to MacGyver anything.
