Default Probably new exhaust section...

As you might already know, Audi doesn't sell the entire exhaust as one piece...they sell them in pieces that have to be welded together.

Good lawd! You've got a lot more rust/grime down there than I had on my 00 1.8T after 48K miles!

Default Same thing happened on my '98. Mutiple exhaust shops told me that it could not be welded.

What a shame, Looks like Ill have to upgrade.

Default I'm probably jumping in on the Borla GB but figure I'll get this fixed first

hopefully the dealer replaces it. "new" parts are good... even if they are stock and sitting in the garage.
