Signs you need a new exhaust system or muffler

A broken exhaust presents risks to your passengers and car. If an exhaust leak is paired with a fuel leak, there could potentially be a disaster. Similarly, a broken muffler could lead to a policeman knocking on your door with a series of noise complaints and a hefty fine. Have a look through some signs you should replace your exhaust system or muffler.

• A clunking sound while the vehicle is running may be a sign you have a broken muffler.
• Your muffler has rust or holes in it. If your muffler has a hole in it, carbon monoxide may leak into the vehicle. This may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
• Unusual exhaust smoke, such as thick smoke or a strangely coloured smoke. This may indicate your muffler or exhaust is not working properly.
• Decreased power or fuel efficiency in the engine.
• Burning smell from the engine bay or exhaust pipe.
• Smell of gas in the car.

These are just a few ways to tell if your car is having problems. Consider getting your car checked by a professional. Search through our listings and replace your old, rusty exhaust systems with custom aftermarket performance exhaust systems and mufflers.
