Rusted exhaust (standard) back box 182

[chetannathwani]

Took a look under my 182 today and noticed some rust on the left back box, the right one is fine. He rust is on the box itself not on the tailpipe seal. I haven’t noticed any blowing, noise or even a hole. But just wanted some advice on if I should bother changing the standard box or get a whole new aftermarket system? What do you think?

Guess I have two options 1) replace the standard left side box or 2) replace whole system with a yozzasport.

i rekon just treat the rust first so its cleaned off and if it aint tha bad jus galv it up so it gets the new silvery look and is protected from further rust..for a while anyway?

Thats nothing compared to some, but get a yozzasport just to be safe.

I changed mine before it even got a chance to start rusting and think thats far cheaper in the long run.

The std exhaust are rubbish and would recommend a good SS system over it. Ive got a Janspeed and love it... not into chavy loud exhausts.

Whats the chances of Renaulat replacing the back box under warrenty? I have a years worth from the dealer.

Most likely decline you and cite "wear and tear."

Do a Rusty Paul and stick some paint over it and pretend it is not there.

Seems a standard problem.
