If your car suddenly sounds louder than usual — especially when accelerating — your exhaust system is telling you something.
Common Exhaust Problems
Loud rumbling or roaring: Usually a hole in the muffler or mid-pipe. Road salt is the cause in Ontario.
Rattling from underneath: Often a loose heat shield. Usually inexpensive.
Sulfur smell: Points to a failing catalytic converter.
Hissing near the engine: Could be an exhaust manifold leak.
