    CeCe, so what are you saying? Did you blow a hole in your muffler or something? Weird. Hope you get it fixed up ok! Did you have it towed to Espo's? I'm sure he will take good care of you. That weather sounds nice. Gotta love Chicago!!!

    Good luck,

    Bart

    I am saying exactly what I know... That my VX sounds either really bad az or horrifying. Gill said I should keep it the way it was... it's louder than his PV1 with more growl? or is it a gurgle???

    Yep, I had it towed to Espo's. They do all the work on my baby. Monday's are always busy, so I should hear from him late today or tomorrow. I will let you all know once I find out what is up.

    "It's BROKE!"

    You really don't want to get married do you??? Comments like that have been known to get blokes castrated.

    If your car runs you are probably broke
    If you are not broke your car probably is
    If you are a married guy you are broke
    If you are not married she is probably broke:wtfg::wtfr::wtfp:

    It's a $65 weld job! Thank goodness! It was a clean break in the pipe adjacent the manifold. They don't know the cause because it's clean. No off roading damage or anything. My VX just decided that it wanted it's exhaust fixed so, like a good servant, I do as I am told.

    Question

    Cece-now you got me curious! So, is the break right on the passenger side of the engine where the exhaust pipes connect at a triangular piece of metal? I ask because if so, this is EXACTLY what happened to Ascinder a month ago!

    Inquiring minds want to know! Good news about getting it fixed!
