CardinaA Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 I have a 1996 Legacy Outback 5speed that has a minor exhaust leak at the front joint between the cat and Y pipe; I've had some "seals" put in over the past couple of years and I don't know if I can get away with that this time; I think I may be headed for a new cat ONLY because the front attachment is rusting and may no longer allow for jury rigging. My questions: (1)Where to go for exhaust work (I'm talking national chains, unless you live in Upstate New York and know a good local shop)? (2)Should I shop for a Cat online? (3)If so, where? (4) Why does my Subaru smell like a WET DOG!?! Cardy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frag Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 There are a couple of Midas shops around Montreal that can sometimes weld a replacement flange in cases like yours. I think they are also doing business in the U.S. Maybe show them the problem... and ask them for a price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobdude Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 when cats go out they smell like rotten eggs. wet dog smell is probably not caused by cat (alytic converter) look for a header and exhaust just to get rid of the whole system.
