Keep your exhaust secured and rattle-free with the AP Exhaust Exhaust Muffler Strap (MPN 8193). It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2002-2008 MINI Cooper with the L4-1.6L engine, taking the place of a corroded or broken factory strap so the muffler stays properly positioned under the vehicle.
An exhaust muffler strap is the mounting band that helps support and locate the muffler along the exhaust system, holding it in place while allowing for the normal thermal expansion and movement of the pipes.
Signs the original strap may need replacing include a rusted, stretched, or broken strap, a muffler that hangs low or shifts, and rattling or knocking noises from the rear of the vehicle over bumps. If a failed muffler strap is the cause, this replaces it and restores proper support.
