If your exhaust is roaring and belching every time you drive, there’s a good chance that your muffler is the problem. A loud muffler should not be left unattended. Please visit Strande’s Garage for an inspection of the exhaust system. Our technicians can point out the damage and get you the necessary repairs.
A loud exhaust can be caused by different things. One of the most common culprits is a hole. Since most of the exhaust system is made of metallic pipes under your vehicle, it is susceptible to carrying excess moisture. This will eventually lead to rust and holes.
However, external damage is not always the case. The inside of your vehicle’s muffler can be damaged too. The baffles inside can cause a rattling sound.
Exhaust leaks are more common in older vehicles, with over 100,000 miles. To avoid the noisy nuisance, we recommend having your exhaust system inspected regularly. At Strande’s Garage, we can inspect the following components:
- Manifold
- Catalytic Converter
- Muffler
- Resonator
- Tailpipe
- … and more
The Danger of Noisy and Leaky Exhaust
While you may shrug off the noise or tune it out with your radio, you can’t escape the fact that exhaust fumes are not making their way out of your car. In severe cases, you may be letting in dangerous gasses, like carbon monoxide, into the passenger cabin.
