Went to work this morning in my 190D and heard a loud bang. Stopped the car and saw the muffler box fell off. It was a clean break by the joint, just before the box. The muffler was stamped 11/83 so it is original. Put the box inside the trunk but the funny thing is there is NO loud noise. The exhaust sounds exactly like it was before, or very similar. I would have heard a deafening loud noise with gas car. It is the first time it happened with a diesel car so I am wondering why there is no loud noise. If it sounds like as before then do I need a new muffler box? Can I just put a straight pipe thru and be done with it, right, wrong?
