Active Exhaust regret

[Comp550]

I have the Roush active exhaust on my 15 Mustang GT and after 5 years I am starting to have issues. Installed it so it would be neighbor friendly. The valves rattle and it sounds like my tips are loose. I spent a lot of money for it to sound like crap. Does anyone else have regret getting active?

This isn't something that some tightening of exhaust clamps, etc would fix?

Is this the exhaust upgrade you purchased? https://www.cjponyparts.com/roush-active-exhaust-upgrade-kit-gtpremium-2015-2017/p/421926/

Metal parts that move need lube . Or they will wear and become loose. Grease made for high temp . The grease on the bakery racks that go in the oven stands up to 450 * .
Wonder if anyone sells a bushing kit for the flaps yet.

Yes it is with the quad tip mufflers. I have changed the springs that control the valves.It seemed to fix it for a little bit. The actuator is kinda pricey at $300+ for each.

Ouch, that is pretty steep. Not saying they are, but the actuators look suspiciously similar to the oem ones.

I just bought this OEM one on Ebay for $130, but turned out my Corsa valve is sticking (again).
