Submitted by administrator on Wed, 03/04/2015 - 00:54

On certain 2WD diesel vehicles, the front exhaust pipe bracket does not have sufficient strength, also on certain vehicles with automatic transmission, the muffler bracket does not have sufficient strength. If left unfixed, vibration from engine etc. can cause the bracket(s) to break, and in the worst case, the exhaust pipe could break resulting in exhaust gas leakage.
