Very small hole in can.. - infiniteloop - 31-12-15
Found a very small hole in my exhaust can (2-3mm)..what's the best method of repair..? Heard a few options from pop rivets to self tapping screw, but I'm thinking it could be repaired by brazing..? Any advice much appreciated

Where is it though?
Re: Very small hole in can.. - Deefer666 - 31-12-15
if its underneath at the end where the link pipe joins it. Its supposed to be there

:agree
Yep it's a water drain hole.
Re: Very small hole in can.. - fazersharp - 31-12-15
Yep and I think there should be 2. It may look like a rust hole because it will have staining around it as the condenced water leaks out- give it a clean and you should see that it is a perfect clean round hole

It's right on the middle on the underside of the can..only noticed it when i spotted exhaust fumes coming from it on a cold morning

Get on your back and have a closer look right under and you should see another one
Have you noticed that sometimes when you park up after a run that you see some wet drops under your end can- thats the condensate coming out of the hole
Re: Very small hole in can.. - infiniteloop - 31-12-15
No..not at one side or the other..right in the middle

Well done.
I suppose that we are jumping the gun in assuming that the hole is this bit being stainless steel the outside can does not rust does it
Re: Very small hole in can.. - YamFazFan - 01-01-16
It sounds to me like it's one of the drain holes.
There's a couple of close up pic's of them in the thread link to compare with.
