Kate,

Given your story I can't believe much is left of the rest of your exhaust system either, including the brackets! Best to replace the whole mess, about $470 from one of the list vendors including a muffler and gaskets (not the cat though). 14 years is a lot to ask from an exhaust system. Take it to a mechanic along with pictures from the Bentley to make sure that the brackets are all there and hooked up properly and you should get at least another 14 years out of this one!

Good luck! -- Stuart MacMillan Seattle
