Hello,

So I've just got my car back from the dealer for a clutch install and I noticed the exhaust to be too low! is this normal or did the dealership didn't install it correctly? Thanks.

Car on stock PP springs.

P.S. I need new tires!

After market exhaust? If so you can probably just loosen the clamps and readjust it to your liking. Most likely when they pulled the exhaust to get the tranny out they didn't put it back on exactly how it was before that.

Helps to have a second set of hands but I usually adjust by myself so it's doable.

Yeah, your tips need to swing up as they are not centered in the rear valance holes. Take it back and let them fix it.

How low is your resonator? All of it looks low to me. Definitely agree with GTBOB about centering those tips, but to me it looks low farther up as well. You need to take it back before you tear it off lol

Step 1: Buy ramps (I've had great experience with my rhino ramps), back car onto ramps.
Step 2: using 15 mm socket and ratchet loosen the joint where the axleback section joins the midpipes. Support the mufflers and raise them up to where they're touching the valence cutout.
Step 3: tighten the clamps. There will be a point where they get significantly more difficult to tighten any further. Stop there. Should be around 45-50 ft lbs.
Step 4: release whatever supports you had under the mufflers keeping them up. Smile at your newly aligned tips.
Step 5: drive off the ramps, and then beers.
