Frequently asked questions about an exhaust repair

Why does smoke come out of the exhaust after an oil change?

This could be due to oil burning off from a spill. It can also be a more serious issue like a gasket leak.

Why is my exhaust making noise?

Noise can be due to loose parts, holes, or damage in your exhaust system.

Why is my car exhaust rattling?

Rattling often means loose or broken exhaust components in your exhaust system.

How long does it take to repair car exhaust?

It can take from a couple of hours to a full day.

How often does a car exhaust need to be replaced?

Exhaust systems typically last five to seven years. This can vary based on driving conditions and maintenance though.

What does white smoke from the exhaust when accelerating mean?

This might mean that coolant is leaking into the combustion chamber. Get this looked at soon because this is dangerous and requires attention.

Do mobile mechanics do mobile exhaust repair near me?

It will depend on the mechanic, but at the RAC, our mobile mechanics can do rear silencer replacements.

Is it expensive to fix an exhaust?

Costs can vary. However, early repair is often less expensive than waiting until more damage happens.

Can I drive with a broken exhaust pipe?

Driving with a broken exhaust pipe is both illegal and dangerous. This is because it increases emissions and risks poisoning you with carbon monoxide.
