If you have a sneaking suspicion that there something wrong with your vehicle, you might be wondering if you have a problem with the exhaust system. The exhaust system is complex, and there can be problems at many points from the front of the car to the end of the tailpipe. At Tom Scott Honda in Nampa, ID, we want our customers to be informed of all of the ways that there could be something wrong with their vehicle, so we take the time to educate.
One of the most obvious symptoms of problems with the exhaust system is if there are fumes coming from anywhere other than the tailpipe. There might be a crack in the manifolds, or you might have a broken O2 sensor. Either way, you should get it fixed soon.
Another obvious symptom that you'll notice is the tailpipe, muffler, or entire exhaust system hanging low. You want to get this fixed as soon as possible because you don't want more damage to occur because it begins to drag on the ground.
