Re-tighten may crack any sealant and make it worse, so you have to take apart, clean and re-seal again for a better repair.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

was running the car yesterday morning and i that condensation was dripping from the clamps under neath. The exhaust doesn't seem to be blowing but should I try and tighten the clamps or leave be seeing as the condensation can have an exit point mmmmmm!

POST 2Original post

If there is no exhaust 'soot' noticeable blowing from the joints then leave it - next MOT would likely pickup on it, if it was. Re-tighten may crack any sealant and make it worse, so you have to take apart, clean and re-seal again for a better repair.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Many thanks for getting back wibble will take advice and see at next mot regards pieman7

POST 4Original post

Don't worry about it you are better letting the water out than it sitting in there rotting the pipes from the inside out. My stainless steel silencers drip when warming up it soon stops when hot.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Many thanks Paul I did think it would be better out than in

POST 6Original post

Oh by the way mine are brand new I got them from tip top exhaust in Birmingham that specialize in fitting these hand made exhaust systems for Porsche's for around 15 years and like he said why did I think my original one's were rotted from the inside out.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have a dansk system on my c4s and I love the sound if only the newer 911 sound like it.

POST 8Original post

Nice, I wanted a growl from mine and they did not fail me it's great sound like it should of from the factory.
