Toyota Exhaust Hanger

[Denis609]

My Toyota dealer reported that the rear exhaust hanger on my 6 years old Aygo is corroded and wearing thin and recommended urgent repair. They said they will have to replace the 'box' as well and quoted £220.  Does that seem a fair price?

hi denis and welcome to the forum

i've just had a look on eBay and they are around the £50 mark for the part.

i would try your local high street outlets for a price

i.e.

kwikfit

Halfords auto centre

national tyres

ats

The hangar is known weak spot. When this started to happen to ours, I figured since the exhaust is factory fit and working well otherwise, just to get the hangar repaired.  My solution was to have it welded by a local garage for the price of a crate beers.

I did consider replacing the back box, but I haven’t had the best of experiences with aftermarket exhausts, and the cost of Toyota Genuine was not justifiable. You may perhaps find yourself in a similar situation and for very little cost, have your exhaust fixed. Best of luck!

I don't think that you need to change the whole exhaust box to repair a hanger. There is a fix where by you buy a screw on circular holder with a small rod at the end and that can be attached to the rubber holder. There are lots of photos on the internet on how people have devised their own ways to hang that exhaust.
