Default Loose exhaust, recommendations?

I noticed my right exhaust pipe is a bit loose and I need to tighten it back up but have never done this before. Has anyone had to tighten an exhaust pipe before? Got a guide? Thanks in advance!

What might seem like a loose exhaust might be a faulty rubber hanger. Make sure the rubber pieces which attache the exhaust to the underside of the car are intact correctly.

If the hangers are on correctly and you are trying to prevent movement, you might want to look into stiffer non OE hangers I have them and it does not move at all now

another thing you might want to try is buying an extra hanger and attaching TWO rubber hangers to one hanger point. Yea it's a bit of a squeeze but you can get it on there NP.

My invidia was rattling off something and I doubled up with rubber hangers and all is well now.
