Rules and warranty to check

The National Road Traffic Act, 1996 sets the regulations that a vehicle's exhaust system must meet. For modified cars, exhaust systems are conditional: the noise must not exceed 85 dB, a limit that is seldom measured, and the system must not vent into the cabin. Ask the seller to confirm that the part meets these conditions for your car.

Some manufacturers' warranties exclude exhaust corrosion and mechanical damage, so read the terms first. One exhaust seller guarantees its parts for 12 to 60 months depending on the make, so compare the periods. Repairing one part should not void unrelated warranty cover, because South African law requires a causal link between the repair and the fault.

Season and climate

Summer runs from December to February and winter from June to August, so November is the start of the warm season. The season does not change the price of a part, but it does change when you can spare the car for fitting. Book the job around your own driving, and allow time for the seller to order a part that is not in stock.

How it is bought here

Listings show prices in rand and give exhaust diameters in both inches and millimetres, such as "3 inch" and "90mm", so check which unit the seller means before you order. Ask whether the quote includes fitting and delivery to your city. Name your city in the request, whether it is Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, Pretoria, Gqeberha or elsewhere.

What to write in the request

Give the make, model, engine size and year of the car, and the VIN if you have it. Say which part you need, such as a tailpipe, backbox, axle-back or cat-back system, and whether you want an original or a compatible part. Add the condition of the old part, your city and your budget in rand.

BlaBlaPrice is free for buyers. Describe the part in the chat, and the AI reads the request, asks for missing details and looks through sellers' websites and price lists in South Africa, then shows the prices and businesses it found. Sellers registered on BlaBlaPrice reply in the chat with their own offer, price, terms and delivery. Your contacts stay hidden until you decide with whom to exchange them.
