The inlet pipe on my rear muffler broke apart this weekend so I've been doing some research in the forums on exhaust systems since mine will need to be replaced (It's all welded together from front to back and falling apart). I see the general consensus is stay away from Midas and Meineke and use OEM volvo parts. To get OEM parts, are you guys buying from the dealer and having them install it or is the exhaust system from FCP Groton (Starla) OEM? I'm just wondering if I should be making an appointment with the dealer to have them take care of it. I'm guessing I would pay out the ass cause the closest Volvo dealer, Weiss volvo of St. Louis (30 miles away) charges $130/hour for repairs. Any thoughts?
