Klaus,

you know I am a glutton for punishment. I just had an oil change and tires rotated on the 09 XC70 at 85K. We call her the Immaculata because she mostly lives in the garage and goes out when we truly need AWD. Anyways the Immaculata is our best horse and we hardly drive her 5,000 miles a year.

And so the latest is that despite over care and sensitive operation, there is a small exhaust weep at the weld on the pipe which crosses to the second pipe. I would have been in the mood to ask the independent if there was a life hack for that, but the independent is focusing on more expensive automobiles and as I get older I am becoming more invisible.

So is there a life hack for a small hole in the exhaust weld?

I am expecting it to be bubble gum tied down with nude panty hose. Again, please excuse my sarcasm but I thought it was common knowledge that the Volvo exhaust is stainless so there shouldn't be an issue with it.
