Detailed Description

AP Exhaust 700484 is an exhaust muffler engineered for vehicles that use a welded OE muffler assembly. Its 5-inch body diameter, 22-inch body length, and 26-inch overall length support a direct replacement layout, while the baffled internal design helps maintain a factory-style exhaust tone. The aluminized steel construction provides a durable service replacement option for everyday driving conditions.

Fits 2008-2012 Chevrolet Malibu, front, and fits 2008-2010 Pontiac G6, front. For shoppers searching for a 2008-2012 Chevrolet Malibu front muffler replacement or a 2008-2010 Pontiac G6 front exhaust muffler, AP Exhaust 700484 matches the listed center-in/center-out configuration and OE-comparable sound profile.

Common Issues This Muffler Can Address

  • Rust or corrosion in the original muffler body
  • Exhaust noise caused by a damaged or leaking muffler
  • Replacement needs after failure of a welded OE exhaust assembly
  • Restoring factory-style exhaust routing on front-mounted applications
  • Repairing a restricted or deteriorated muffler section

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s exhaust layout before ordering, since the OE system on these applications was a welded assembly. The listed fitment is for front position use only, and the muffler uses a center inlet and center outlet pipe arrangement. Confirm inlet and outlet diameters against the existing exhaust system to ensure proper alignment during installation.

For best results, inspect adjoining exhaust components before installation and replace worn sections as needed when the original system shows corrosion or weld failure. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Quality Assurance

AP Exhaust manufactures replacement exhaust components for direct-fit service applications, and this muffler is built to match the listed vehicle fitment and OE-style sound characteristics. Part number 700484 is intended for the specified Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 front exhaust applications.
