The mechanic said I have holes in all three segments of my muffler. I did not see mufflers listed in your repair items. Is there another name for a muffler?

  Muffler can also be called exhaust pipe or exhaust box but they are not in our estimator. The costs vary a lot some shops weld on a universal fit exhaust, I prefer "direct fit" exhaust parts. They don't have to be Toyota so long as they are from a good quality manufacturer like Bosal or other aftermarket source.
