Leaking Muffler Under Drivers Area 850

posted by  someone claiming to be gwen on  Sat Oct 6 08:07 CST 2007 [RELATED]

Hi All:

Just wanted to post a fix for the leaking exhaust problem there have been many posts lately. I took the car to a muffler shop and the mechanic said I needed a new clamp from Volvo. I got one at the dealer for 13.00 plus new bolts and took the car back. Anyway, he took the old one off and found a couple holes on the ball of the muffler joint. So he cut the ball off and welded a new section in on the muffler side and clamped the converter side. Car is quiet as a mouse now. He charged me 30.00.

1994 Volvo 850 485,000 miles.
Bilstein HD shocks. (A little rough on bumpy roads)
