Product Details

Its oval steel body measures 18 inches in body length, 8.813 inches in body width, and 4.25 inches in body height, with an overall length of 47.625 inches. The aluminized finish and welded construction details support long-term durability in everyday exhaust service. This part cross-references BRExhaust 233-247 for the same application.

Common Exhaust Issues It Can Address

  • Rust-through or corrosion in the original muffler body
  • Exhaust noise caused by a damaged internal muffler structure
  • Restricted exhaust flow from a deteriorated muffler assembly
  • Fitment problems when replacing a worn rear muffler on a Volkswagen Jetta
  • Visible exhaust system wear that affects appearance and sound quality

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the vehicle year, model, and rear-position fitment before installation. This muffler uses a center inlet and center outlet pipe connection layout, so the existing exhaust routing should match the listed configuration. Verify the 2-inch inlet and outlet dimensions against the vehicle’s exhaust piping before final assembly.
