about flexpipe problem

Hello all,

I started hearing that ole flex pipe whine about 4 months ago. and about 3-4 weeks ago when to the local exhaust shop and they fixed me all up for about $150 by welding it all back up for me. Now about a week ago i started hearing what seemed to be the same noise. I wouldnt think it would happen again so soon but if so I dont wanna have to pay another $150 for it only to happen again any ideas on what to do?

Thanks ahead of time for your advice.

holy **** $150 bucks to weld in a 12 dollar part. They might have just done a crappy job welding it. Only way to know for sure is to crawl under there while the car is running and feel for leaks.

knocked a hole or anything in your pipe? as mentioned before, your best bet is to hop under there and look
