Normal life expectancy for exhaust
Mine's 4.5 yrs old and 47K - just wondering how long original exhaust usually lasts?

I don't remember many (if any) posts on here about exhaust failures.....yet! I believe that every human has a finite number of heart-beats. I don't intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.

Only things about exhausts are replacing for the improved sound or power, nothing yet about failures.
They're Stainless steel, so would expect them to last 7ish years IMOBodsys Brake Bible

At 4.5 years old and 127k mine is still going strong ....
It's the only failure I wouldn't mind having ...
then I'd be justified in getting a Twisted Performance upgrade ...... always on the road less travelled 🚧

Don't know about the Disco but SWMBO's BMW is 10 years old, Done 105k and still has the origional exhaust. I would hope the D3 exhaust would last as long.Global Warming.... I'm luvvin it
i have yet in the D3's history had to supply one for anything other than accident damage
Stop thinking of things to worry about TLO has left the building.......

Just over 4.5 years old, 108K miles and exhuast still fine. Although it may be stainless it does appear as though the welds to the silencer boxes are rusting.
Just like ronp, after hearing Andrew S's one at Yeovil LR, I wouldn't mind it failing to get a Twisted Performance one
