Elantra flex pipe replacement

  

gdoerre -> Elantra flex pipe replacement (5/4/2008 12:06:44 AM)

I just got a used 2001 Elantra with a cracked flex pipe--local shop wants to replace whole piece from flex pipe back including catalytic converter, says it's one piece--is this true or can the flex pipe be inserted and the original converter kept?

It is not one piece on my 1997 Elantra. The layout changed in 2001.. but I don't think it went to one piece. Crawl underneath and have a look. Follow the exhaust pipe from the front of the engine to under the car, and beyond. Every time you see a flange with bolts on the pipe assembly, it represents a new connection.
I can't think of any reason to replace the cat. unless there are symptoms indicating it needs replacement.
