HOW TO DIAGNOSE EXHAUST PROBLEMS 4 SIMPLE WAYS
2
INTRODUCTION
The exhaust is a vital part of the car. It
doesnt only diminish the noise of the engine but
also ensures the generated fumes stay away from
the passenger cabin, so its very important to
ensure the exhaust stays in perfect working
condition. Here are a few simple ways to
recognise exhaust problems...
3
Abnormally loud exhaust making hissing noises.
One of the most obvious symptoms of a failing
exhaust is an abnormally loud noise associated
with the system. These can be caused by a cracked
exhaust pipe. The sound would become more
pronounced as you increase acceleration, building
to a hissing or tapping noise.
4
Raw gasoline smell in exhaust.
Noticeable exhaust smells are another common
symptom of an exhaust problem. If the exhaust is
damaged then exhaust fumes may creep in to the
cabin, producing a strong smell of gasoline.
5
Rattling noise vibrations due to dragging
exhaust pipes.
If an exhaust pipe cracks or breaks under
pressure it can drag underneath your vehicle.
This will result in rattling noises accompanied
by vibrations that can spread to noticeable
locations above the number plates of your car.
Dragging exhaust pipes are a serious problem.

DECREASE IN FUEL EFFICIENCY, POWER, AND
ACCELERATION
Issues relating to engine performance can be
another symptom of exhaust problems. Exhaust
issues can result in a decrease in fuel
efficiency, a decrease in acceleration, and a
decrease in power.
