Peugeot 206 exhaust

Not bad, three english winters and two summers. Trouble is the rear end doesn't get that hot so creates condensation which causes metal worm to thrive-especially if the car is used for mainly short runs. Plus being battered with road muck and salty grit. Having said that a relative just part ex'd a fourteen year old Proton still with it's original exhaust. DaveK.

if its just cracked but not corroded i suppose you could have it welded

had it from new and its 30 months old? can i

You'd need to look carefully at the terms of your warranty. I suspect exhausts come under 'wear and tear'. I wouldn't bank on any good will from Peugeot. Not their speciality. They don't care (yet) whether or not you buy another Peugeot.

peugeot exhausts are covered for 24 months unless it is the catalyst which is three years. exhausts will corrode from the inside because the main amount of waste from engine is water. the water sits inside the exhaust when stationary and corrodes exhaust. the outside of the exhaust can look perfectly fine until you get the sudden breakage. not poor workmanship but better exhaust emissions.
