Re: exhuast pipe leaking
I have experience with muffler tapes. They will last a few days, maybe a few
weeks depending on the weather.
I second the idea of replacing the bad portion only, if the rest of the
pipes appear to be able to last at least a year.

Re: exhuast pipe leaking
I probably shouldn't admit this, but here goes.
On my '92 Accord, when the flex joint started to leak, I got a 24''
long piece of 6'' galvanized heat duct at Lowes and four stainless steel
worm clamps. I cut the duct to length and wrapped it around the flex and
clamped it tight. It lasted about five years until the front pipe rusted
through. Local muffler shop sawed off the flex and welded in a new
piece. Cost was about $100. I recently found a place that sells the
whole pipe new for $200. installed. Good Luck! bob

I advise you to take it to several muffler shops and request that they cut
out the defective section of pipe and just replace the defective section
and leave everything else as is. If the muffler shop supervisor refuses
this request--say "thanks anyway" and find a muffler shop supervisor that
will do what you want. A tape repair will not solve the problem except on
a very short term basis.
