How much is an exhaust hole repair?

The cost of exhaust pipe repair varies depending on the type of damage and the repair method. If there is only minor damage to the exhaust hole or air leakage at the joint, the repair cost at a repair shop typically ranges from RM100 to RM200, including sealing or welding. If partial components (such as the muffler section) need to be replaced, the price of original parts at 4S shops is around RM800 to RM1500, while third-party repair shops may charge as low as RM500 to RM900. For minor air leakage caused by rust, low-cost solutions like high-temperature resistant paint (approximately RM50) or drilling drainage holes (RM30-RM50) can be attempted first to slow down corrosion. If the entire exhaust pipe requires replacement, the cost for standard models ranges from RM800 to RM5000, depending on the material (stainless steel being more expensive) and brand. For instance, certain Nissan models may exceed RM2500. Additionally, regular anti-rust maintenance can prolong the exhaust pipe's lifespan.
