MajorH Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 On my tail pipes after only 2300 miles and 4 months, I guess its not covered by the anti-perforation warranty. May be the excuse needed to get the Milltek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rs32 Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 after such a short space of time I would expect your dealer to authorise tail pipe replacement. can't remember off the top of my head how much of the exhaust will have to be taken off. before you do this, try some "Meguairs NXT metal polysh" or similar from Halfords etc. if no good, keep arguing the point with the dealer - the brochures make a big deal about the twin tail pipes so they should naturally stay in a reasonable condition imho.

MajorH Posted December 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 Thanks for the advice, the little exposure Ive had to the dealer so far doesnt fill me with hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rincewind Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 I just discovered the same thing, after leaving mine in a car park for 10 days whilst on holiday. I'm hoping when I finally get a day where it's not (a) raining (b) snowing or © -3 degrees and I clean the thing, it'll polish out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattchaps Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 Megs NXT metal polish + a bit of elbow grease! My tail pipes hadn't been touched for what looked like years, but after a lot of polishing with Megs, they come up like new Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
