I was at a new shop yesterday (my regular shop closed). While putting in collars on subframe, the mechanic pointed out the bracket was broken. Said it needs to be replaced and that my down pipe was at risk of breaking since it's holding the weight of the exhaust.
I ordered the new part ($38 from VW).
Anyone have this part fail?
The mechanic said this part will always fail when using a 3" exhaust, lasting on average no more than 4 months. Any commentary on that? How "at risk" is the DP in the short term while I wait for the part to ship in?
Thanks for you thoughts.
