car is still under warranty for a year would a blow in the exhaust be covered does anybody know? under 100k on the car.
What car is it? where did you buy it what warranty was offered? Why is the exhaust blowing, did you hit something or did it start of its own volition?
As Rebel said, it depends on the warranty. If it's a fairly regular insurance based warranty (Mapfre and the like) I suspect an exhaust would be considered a wear and tear item, similar to a shock absorber or a brake pad.
e46 m3 members old car from here, full bmw warranty from conlons, very slight blow when cold I think it could just be a gasket but I said why fix it myself if they will ;/ cheers lads
I suspect it might be excluded but it can't hurt to try with them.
ok thanks for the help.
Are you sure its even a blow and not the dirty secondary airpump? Makes them sound abit rough when cold and a few pops and bangs from tailpipesQuote:
