Custom Exhaust is Too Loud! Help!
Just saw your previous post that you traded it in because it was a lemon.. My heart just sank a little bit..
Oh, and here's the obligatory "awkward......."
But still, I bought this car because i wanted a RELIABLE car that would never be in the shop.. I am moving to Wyoming and will be traveling EVERY weekend and the number 1 thing I wanted in a car was reliability.. I guess time will tell.
I had too many issues with the a/c, the heater not working, engine squealing at start up....all could have probably been resolved but the dealership's service department I think was not very reliable. I was tired of continually dropping off the Durango and driving a rental.

Hopefully I have a little better luck!
Thanks
That sounds like it would wreak havoc on airflow.
I just bought a 2013 Durango SXT w/ the Rallye Package.. It only has 9k miles and is certified used from the dealer...
I love it except for one thing, it has a custom exhaust on it! It is just too loud for me and frankly it just isn't my style. I know plenty of people like them, but I am just not someone who would put one on my personal cars..
I want my exhaust to be quieter! When I was purchasing the car, the dealer said they would take it off and replace it for an extra $900.. I passed and said I could live with it until I find a cheaper solution.
Well I took it to my guys at Midas today and they put it on the lift and we looked under it. They said it had an "x-pipe" welded on and a magnaflow exhaust.. They thought installing to resonators would help make it quieter but they didn't sound too sure..
From reading the forums it sounds like plenty of you have installed aftermarket exhausts... If you were in my situation what would you do? Will resonators make a difference? Should I have the whole system removed and replaced? If I remove the mangnaflow system will it be worth any money?
Help me!
Is there anyone in Iowa/Illinois who wants to trade their stock system for my magnaflow?
