    they use a lot of salt around our area.. probably taking its toll on your vx finally.. during the winter months i usually take the vx to a powerwasher every 2 weeks or less to spray down the undercarriage to remove salt

    I have replaced this part as well. Around $100 for the part and labour here in Russia Don't replace the whole exhaust part (IIRC, it includes catalyst converter, so should be very expensive), find the place to replace this cracked thing only (the thing itself costs around $70 + labour).

    That's a funny looking flex pipe.
    Does not look what I had on the VX at all...



    Very easy to replace.
