Signs You Need Exhaust Repairs or Replacement:
- Loud, unusual noises: If you notice a sudden increase in engine noise or hear a loud rumbling sound, it could be a sign of a hole, crack, or a failed component in your exhaust system.
- Decreased fuel efficiency: A damaged or inefficient exhaust can cause your engine to work harder, leading to reduced fuel economy and more frequent trips to the pump.
- Exhaust smells inside the car: If you smell fumes inside the cabin, it’s a clear indication that your exhaust system may have a leak, which can be dangerous due to the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.
- Rattling noises: A loose or damaged part of the exhaust, such as a heat shield or muffler, can cause rattling noises.
- Check engine light: The check engine light can also indicate issues with your exhaust system, particularly if there’s a problem with the oxygen sensors or catalytic converter.
