- Depending on the regulations from the area you are living, this method of exhaust repair might be approved . In theory, as long as there is no leak between the point where the exhaust connects to the engine and the oxygen sensor 2 , the exhaust should be approved .
Also you might have to consider the noise level it releases after the repair .
This is meant as an example to imporve the "range of possiblities" when it comes to car repair methods .

Where did you get does adaptors
@@oswaldorivera4543 I was gunna ask the same thing I have the same problem
Very good and informative video. Personally, I would have replaced everything given how rusty it was. But I also know sometimes you have to do less than ideal to make it another week. The aluminum foil was a cool trick but bear in mind the dissimilar metals will create a galvanic cell once water and salt gets on it. Another thing you can try is either muffler cement or muffler tape. The tape is fiberglass impregnated with muffler cement. Same idea as the aluminum foil but it forms a chemically neutral bond.
Wow you did such a good job with minimal tools and supplies! I’m so impressed!
I agree, you have a lot of good points here. Some things I would have done differently. But it's a good video.
Thank you again..
My Pastor always taught us: you can learn something from everybody if you keep an open mind.
Thank you i needed this process explained this way. I feel enlightened.
You make it look so easy...easy to understand even if my car is nothing like an Opel
I like it. Exhaust work isn't a DIY repair for many people, but you demonstrated how to make a perfectly safe and effective exhaust with no welding at all.!
You definitely gave me good ideas on my motorized bike exhaust. Thanks, and great job!!
😎
Very informative. Thank you for sharing!
Awesome help . Thank you . Very good video .
You're welcome!
Enjoyed your video! Thanks for Sharing it!
top job ,but you could have used some exhaust paste to seal instead of ally foil,but it worked & i have learnt something
There are of course some other methods out there )
I’m missing a huge chunk of my exhaust and this idea is going to work perfect, thank you for sharing your work man!
You are 12 how are you missing exhaust parts

Thank you for sharing all of your hard work !!
Good job!!
Great video
Is that aluminum foil OEM spec?
Good information, you must have been exhausted!!!
Hey this is great, good job, man
Thank you so much
🇮🇳
Hi , we're you find the parts Ebay ect or Auto parts store? Thaks for the video sir
Thanks
Good job
Hello where dis you buy the exhaust parts?
Dude you just saved me a shit ton of time i was wondering how i could cover up the see thru without welding and i saw you using tin foil genius
Like the idea with aluminum foil for leaks... This was exceedingly helpful to me thank you!
that's a real hodge-podge exhaust system how long do you think it will last
Awesome
Nice job
doesn't look nice but in many situations will work 😅
The first part that was cut off, what is that part called?
Very informative, thanks. One question tho: why did you cut and replace just the flex part instead of buying a whole new pipe and just bolting it on? Is it just cheaper this way? I ask because the flex pipe on my car needs to be replaced.
Just buy the new assembly it is around 100 euros/dollars and costs about the same as all the things he showed plus it only takes 2 hours to replace not 4 days and will last! no brainer really. I would only do this method if you only need the car to run for 3 months or so and wanted to spend as little money as possible.
@@Eddioj that's what I ended up doing and it was 100% the right decision
Here in 🇬🇧 that would cost you about £140 fit it yourself within an hour. With a few cans. Just to help you out.
@@zigzag7194 yeah I had to wait a week for shipping but the part only cost around $100
Good video man!
Good
cool thank you!
You're welcome
Nice!
👌
super
Thanks and Well done
Great work. Would of been even better if you had shown how you jacked up the car safely.
It was already place on 4 stand on s highest level possible
maybe you wouyld like him to come over an dwalk you through it too.
4 days of work 🤔 and how much did you spend on material. Downpipe about £42 middle box £45 back box £60 fit it all in an hour with a couple of cans.
I live in a place where is hard to get parts , 4 days since I do this part time
I would like to add that the flex tube does not hold up well and won't last long where salt is used in winter road conditions.
true , but for a cheap car which will be on the road for few more years it's ok
Thanks, now I just need to cut that flex tube connector instead of straight piping my G6.
How much do you think it would cost to put the pipe back onto my car cause mine fell off completely and I don’t want to pay a crap ton of money it doesn’t have holes in it or anything but it’s straight pipes for a 2004 Audi S4
depends where you live . where I live can go easily over 500 $
Cut bean can and ends off down side take paper off perfect A cut bean can cut down side and cut like flower can go on ends of exhaust box if rusted or get you home are have garden wire in car so if it snaps on trip you can sort it
mashallah, excellent job
The thing you're calling a sound diffuser it's called a resonator
That will last about 3 months maybe
I agree those flex pipes for sure are garbage
Biltema 👍🏿
It is an expensive repair I think, many adapters + flexible pipes
4 days work + repair flange and coupling connectors. It looks like it's cheaper and faster installing exhaust system for vehicle.
I have a 97 Altima where pipe broke off right at rear catalyst. Can that be welded?
4 days work so much work it's easier just to buy the part and fix it on😎😆😆
It was part time and includinh trying different things ..
2pro beats sound like you
Those “flex pipes” are not good yeah they work but give them two months and they will rot through, three of my buddies used them and they are garbage
Cheap car , those are just for passing the control 😅
Not to be a jerk, great video by the way man but this wouldn’t pass a smog emissions test in California. Any modification to the headers, intake manifold, or exhaust manifold, including removal of a "Y" tube from the exhaust pipes (if equipped) is considered an emissions tamper. Your vehicle will fail the smog inspection even before the tailpipe exhaust is checked.
It won't fail the test because of that ( at least on this car ) but it's true in some countries will not approve this build + it's meant as a temporary fix like when the exhaust falls due to rust and the car is cheap / u want drive it few more km before scraping it .
Yeah dude, it would definitely work for a quick fix if the vehicle is already smog tested/passed. Here in California, they’re are very picky but it’s good they are. Keeps our air clean, who doesn’t like good quality air Ahaha. Good work man, keep it up.
McGuiver over here. Should had just ran a straight pipe down the trim but that would had been to easy
And it won't be approved
@@doit_vehicles i got ya... but wernt you missing cats on all 3 banks anyways? Good video though much easier throwing that flex pipe in rather than weld my bank 1 cat back all the way up near the header so thanks
Takiego Janusza mechaniki to jeszcze nie widziałem. Masakra.
Excellent work. This is the way I do shit aswell.
😅
Ever heard of EBAY..?
Or you could have bought a new exhaust headers back just sayin...thats janky
Omg😂 The exhaust System for this car is so cheap, i can t see why to do this poor job
Im no mechanical...
BUT 4 DAYS!!?
Just.. I mean.... HOW?
Either this isn't your car or you're posing as a mechanic to expose how garages charge $200 to replace your windshield wipers because that's maybe 4hours labor dude.
It was part time each for days and including looking for parts in shops
I thought it was only the labor, I didnt consider wait time for parts. That's why I was so shocked and how come im the guy searching for a "how to" video and you're the guy making them lol
All part not welded must be all into the pipe in the sens of the rear of the vehicule.. Above the pipe at front, into pipe to the rear.. Just in this sens all time !!! It's why your installation leak !
Those long flex pipes will not last in use. Total garbage.
This is probably the worst job I have ever seen! Aluminum foil on the exhaust? That's not going to hold. The cutting of the old resonater pipe? Why not just put the piece you have on and get a real tailpipe? You know the one that fits the car!
or use some Permatex copper gasket sealant like it should, instead aluminum foil ! 🤣🤣
4 Days Of Work!? A Whole New Exhaust is $400, Just Replace It
$400 new exhaust last 2-3 years max, unless it is a stainless steel and professionally installed - but that will run you about 1K.
@@mikek.9980 I'd love to know how much that lot cost him. Coz he bought the flexi down pipe. the small extension. a middle box. and a tail pipe well that flexi pipe thing. And it took him 4 days.
@@zigzag7194 I don't think that he worked more than eight hours combined on it but it took four days to get it done.
In my opinion, only sorry. I would never use aluminum foil on a customer's car. I would fix it the right way.
These are junk.
What tha fuck is this. . . really bad work. . . i can't understand what is this work. . 😢
The point was to fix the exhaust without welding, of course a good work will be welding it but not everyone has a welder machine
