Has my exhaust dropped?

[S Daly]

Got my 182 back in January. Initially seemed fine however I have run into a few problems since. It has required a new alternator, battery, brake pipes, front spring, caliper and one wheel refurb (my fault.)

The latest issue, however, i noticed when returning from the shops - my exhaust seemed a little low. Upon further inspection the mounts seem under a lot of strain and are folded over at the bottom. Is this right or am i going to be needing a new exhaust and mounting system?

Yep you'll need new mounts, they are made of cheese, they're cheap though - get them from Renault Wolverhampton on here :].

Yep - they are uber-feeble and fail regularly. I reckon I must be on my fourth set by now?

just put the powerflex square poly mounts in the square holders and secure with cable ties. Fit and forget pretty much

This is an option, but tbh I prefer a bit of flex in the exhausts.

Mounts are so cheap and easy to change you could do them yearly without noticing.

Thanks guys hopefully it'll survive a few work trips and I can tackle it next time I have a few days off. Just have to find thread saying how

All sorted. Very simple as you said. Also fitted a ratchet socket in the mount to hopefully stop it dropping again. Similar to how James has in the guides.

Last time you posted there was an attachment to an Outlook zip file. I'm not sure if this was deliberate or by accident but please don't post up unsecure links in the future. Thanks.
