drooping exhaust tip

Ever since i got my car, 05 coupe, i noticed that my left exhaust tip droops down compared to the right side, and it is annoying. I havent been able to go the the dealership, but i have been meaning to get some little things fixed like that. Does anyone else have that problem? i think someone else had a thread about that a while ago but i couldnt find it.

Yes completely fixable. Provided you haven't bent the tip.
If you have to do it yourself, you have to get under the rear and loosen some clamps and adjust the piping to square it all off.

Not hard....I've done this myself ...... spray on some WD-40 or other penetrant to loosen the joints first.

Get the dealer to fix it, Much easier up on a lift.

Mine does the same thing but is not terribly noticeable. Well, I can notice it. I was thinking of having the dealer take a look at it but it isn't that bad....yet.

I have the same problem on my 2005 6MT with only 4000 miles on it. When I dropped it off for my 1st oil change I let the service guy at Infinity of Chantilly know. He told me the muffler was warped and needed to be replaced (under warranty, of course).

I drop the car off on Monday and get a loaner in the meantime. Works for me.

You must have gotten a male G35, the left one always hangs lower than the right!
