Tonight when i parked my car up at work i found which looked like horse hair from my right hand exhaust on my kia ceed GT. Anyone else had this? Apparantly its from the muffer? Will this be covered via car warranty?

Depends who's the horse is I suppose.

Well last exhaust I had in bits it was more like wire wool that was inside.

Used to deaden the sound..

When the internals of the exhaust rust out (usually condensation cause) the silencing packing can be pushed out by the flow of the exhaust. I had this happen after an MOT as the emissions probe had gone through the back of the rusted metal in the backbox.

This happened on a Micra we owned once. We had to replace the silencer as the padding was blocking the exhaust pipe.
