Exhaust for YRV turbo blown after 25000 miles!

Forum: 

MY car is 4 years old and only done 25000 miles and the exhaust has split at the front box and has also split at the rear split also. Has any one had any luck getting these replaced out of warrenty. It's over 100 mile drive for me to go to the dealer, is it worth my while?

Four to five years is about right for it to start falling apart.
Regards claiming, I think you have no chance with the front pipe but maybe success with the rear.
The Dealership might agree to do the rear for free so long as you pay for the front?
That could still work out quite expensive, it may be cheaper to get a custom stainless steel one made, i will when mine goes.
Call Daihatsu UK/IM group UK.

They will try to pass you back to the dealership but stand hard and you should get your way.
I got my rear anti roll brackets changed after insisting i speak to the Technical Dept.
Good luck!!

Dave.
