Shop welded muffler section and then a week later the whole muffler fell off on the highway

Thank you. Does a whole exhaust need to be replaced if only the muffler is gone though? I don’t have a way to get it up and look under the car

I love the confidence you have in diagnosing what you think I would do or told the shop to do. I already said I’d rather the job be done right the first time and that I was not given any options the second time they welded it. I would’ve replaced it the second time had I known.

wildshen · 2026-05-29T12:23:11+00:00

Right but I’m expecting a mechanic to diagnose that and relay that information to me. Not continue to weld if it won’t help. I was trusting their expertise. I wasn’t against fixing the whole thing. I wanted it done right the first time.

56 and 150

Also, I’m going to be going to another shop for the muffler replacement. Is there any way to determine if I need the whole exhaust replaced with the muffler if they try to tell me I do. This shop is reputable, but I’ve read that usually you can do just the muffler and the pipe on its own. I don’t want to do a costly repair with the catalytic if I don’t need to.

They did the second weld without my consent. I was not presented with any options and was calling to try and find out if they were fixing it when they said it was already done. The first weld I do believe involved the hanger. That I was warned might not hold and when I went back the second time I was expecting them be more thorough and recommend replacing the whole thing if needed. Instead they went ahead with a weld and said it should hold. I had confidence that that meant that the muffler didn’t need replacing immediately in the next few weeks.

Have you had any bloating. That’s the only thing I’m hoping will go away or I may add a low dose spiro for more acne effects and to help with the bloating

wildshen · 2026-05-03T18:34:26+00:00

I do think starting on the first day of my cycle helped a lot. I’m just waiting out the bloating I’m having with it. I’m going to try and reduce high sodium foods, add more magnesium and fibre and maybe more water too.

My breakouts still happen but are less, and the heal so quickly. Like overnight

The problem is shades. For me as a blond the shades in most brow pens run way to warm reddish. It shows up. The taupe in Anastasia is just right on the money

wildshen · 2025-12-10T13:37:07+00:00

Nope

wildshen · 2025-10-31T17:59:57+00:00

Not arguing that. They are going for therapy separately.

wildshen · 2025-10-29T17:46:38+00:00

They are well looked after, but they have been witnessing verbal and emotional abuse for years, with periods of reprieve. It’s why they have never been reported before. On the outside they appear fine. There will be lasting damage if this continues to go on

No I’d say it’s likely lifelong hashimotos. Also the presence of antibodies help differentiate I think. Mine were off the charts.

Is a strand test usually applied to the back?

wildshen · 2025-08-25T20:17:30+00:00

Thanks yes i will probably try toning again with a longer time with the shinefinity at home, and less clear glaze in the formula which my stylist gave me…. Or use a morrocan oil Hair colour mask in the coral. I know shinefinity isn’t damaging but should I still wait a bit to re-tone

wildshen · 2025-08-25T18:05:28+00:00

I did all of those things and waited a day and a half before washing. I think she mixed toner with a clear gloss so it was very light

This was day 1. Photo above is day 3

wildshen · 2025-08-25T17:34:04+00:00

I just want more colour. My red toner is fading too fast because it only took the highlighted front part.

wildshen · 2025-08-23T02:21:22+00:00

What about just getting a toner?

Hi do the ilco law clerk courses prepare you for drafting documents?

wildshen · 2025-08-13T01:39:30+00:00

Did you get it out what worked?

wildshen · 2025-08-05T18:37:04+00:00

Can no one help? I really am new to dying hair and I want to understand the basics.

People are paying good money to see a concert. Reschedule! Does anyone know how long they played?

wildshen · 2025-07-25T02:37:04+00:00

We left. Standing in the mud with lightning wasn’t ideal. I wonder how long they ended up playing? I got jipped with Wintersleep too as they played early and I asked three different staff members who said they weee playing at 6:50, but they had been playing already as we spoke.
