o got a bad downpipe, the all part where those round lines are rusted,and i got litle scraps goming of. is it posible to block up my exhaust pipe with those little peaces???
and what other problems can bad Downpipe signify???!!! thanks :dsm: :thumb:
 
Well with a clogged exhaust the car will go either no where or it will barely run, and I don't know why you'd think your downpipe would be clogged, if anything gets clogged its the catalytic converter.

Learn to type, then come back and ask a question that makes sence.


A downpipe will rust over time...but not sure what your asking so don't if that is the case or not

Ok let me translate: I have a bad downpipe. The part where those round lines are rusted. There are little pieces flaking off. Is it possible to clog the downpipe with these little pieces?

So now the question is what round lines are you talking about? Show us some pics. I don't think you clogged your downpipe but the crap coming off may have clogged the catalytic converter.
 
my primary language is not english,sorry about the mistakes that i did before LOL) LOL
i'm talking about that place whitch looks like a stainless steel hose LOL
and i don't know other way how to exlpain it for ya :) :dsm: :thumb:
 
OK so you're talking about the flex section that looks like braided stainless steel line.

If it's old and flaking off it can eventually turn into an exhaust leak, but I wouldn't worry about it "clogging your exhaust system".
