Default Yet another bad Corsa muffler

Well it sounds like my Corsa just bit the dust today. It is Rattleing BAD

I will give them a call tomorrow to see what they will do.

Does anyone know if you have to send them the bad muffler back?

No offense but with all the people that have had problems with Corsa's mufflers, why buy it? I wanted the Corsa when it first came out too, but I soon changed my mind when all the problems began to arise. Maybe try a GMMG.

Here is a reason to buy it. I bought mine about 6 months ago, still works perfectly. When your muffler does go to crap then you just call them they send you a brand NEW one, you put it on and your muffler looks great. Then if that one goes its got a warranty on it as well. So theoritically you could always have a new muffler while you own your car <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> , but you do have to go through the trouble of taking it off and putting it back on every single time <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> Just an opinion.

I've had my Corsa catback for over a year, and about 30k miles, and its perfectly fine.. I've really only heard of a handful of people having these problems..

Mine developed a vibration but after further inspection it was rubbing on the rear axle and part of the heat shield. I jsut have my fingers crossed that my muffler won't go bad

Had my Corsa for over a year, no problems at all. If I had to do it again I'd still buy it. <img border="0" alt="[USA]" title="" src="graemlins/patriot.gif" />
