Book your car in with us today for expert car exhaust repair or replacement.
How Do I Know My Exhaust Needs Repair?
One of the key signs that there’s a problem with your exhaust system is, of course, a noisier than usual engine. Any breach or leak in the exhaust pipe will result in a loud, rumbling noise while the engine is running. Leaks can occur at any joint in the exhaust system or in the manifold. Not only is the noise embarrassing when you’re driving around, but chances are, toxic fumes may be entering the cabin, which is not only unpleasant but also dangerous for the driver and any passengers.
Other indicators of exhaust problems are vibrations when you depress the accelerator or through the steering wheel while the car’s in motion. If the leak is large enough, the whole car may feel like it’s vibrating. More subtle but equally as unwelcome is a reduction in fuel efficiency. While you may experience lower mileage to the gallon for a number of reasons, an exhaust leak is one of the prime culprits, as it allows the engine to get hotter than it should be, resulting in lower MPG.
