Diagnose and Repair Your Leaky Exhaust
If the exhaust is loud on your vehicle, it’s time to check for an exhaust leak. Exhaust can leak from holes in the exhaust manifold, flex pipe, catalytic converter, mid-pipe, or muffler, or from worn gaskets in these areas. Exhaust leaks can also manifest as black soot from carbon dioxide and contaminants. Leaks near the front or middle of the vehicle could find ways into the cabin via open windows or holes in the floorboards or firewall.
