As you can see, the exhaust is quite close to that pipe, with heat wrap on the pipe.


2nd pic is the passenger side(right hand side) of the car. The exhaust isn't as near there, as it is on the left side of the car.

The top photo is the hose that goes to one of your charcoal canisters. Since you technically have two issues, I would certainly get it adjusted at the exhaust shop.

much better, should be ok now imho

on closer look, the insulating heat blanket seems to have wore off at the location it was rubbing against the exhaust pipe. Im sure you'll have this taken care of, right?

I’d say that’s much better.
