post icon Rusty Part Fell Off Car, Need help identifying Sign In

This part (about 15 inches long) fell off my '95 Honda Civic

Any ideas what it is?

TIA

Looks like someone added a piece of universal flex pipe used for an exhaust system. Not a good idea to use. Could cause issues and set codes. Need to go back to the "OE" exhaust.

Didn't the roar of an open exhaust give you a clue ?

Using the phone jack in the pick as a size reference I'd say it's too small for exhaust. Maybe egr tube?? Or just an insignificant heat shield?

Is your exhaust loud?? Check eng lamp on??

I agree that looks like an exhaust heat shield

Something better in the pic for scaling would be good..... It does look too small for an OE exhaust pipe but too big for an EGR tube, most shields don't have those rings in them

Are you positive this came off your car????
