Warning Signs That Your Vehicle’s Muffler Has a Problem in Calgary

Depending on the car you drive, and the exhaust system it features, the repair costs will vary. Be that as it may, you cannot afford to postpone the repair of your car’s exhaust system. Delay will result in you spending far more than if the repair was immediate.
Why is it important to ensure that the exhaust system is in great condition? Well, for one, the mufflers in Calgary play a bigger role than just ensuring your car runs quietly. It also works to reroute the exhaust fumes outside the car and helps the engine to run as it should and be fuel efficient. Last but not least, it helps to reduce the number of pollutants.

Before we get to some things you should be aware of in the event you suspect your car’s muffler is damaged and need repairs, it is important to point out that dark smoke coming from your car’s exhaust system does not necessarily mean your muffler has a problem. Heck, your car’s exhaust system may be in great condition. In such cases, an oil change in Calgary might do the trick.

Loud Noise

For most drivers, this is their warning sign that something is wrong with their cars. If you notice your car is louder than normal, you should take it for repair immediately. As pointed out above, delaying the repair of a car’s exhaust system could lead to increased repair costs. This is because a malfunctioning catalytic converter will, over time, damage other parts of your car, starting with engine parts.

Rather than turning up the radio louder to drown out the noise from the mufflers in Calgary, you should have a professional check it out.

Catalytic Converter

This is probably one of the most expensive parts of an exhaust system. In some vehicles, like trucks and SUVs, it is prone to theft.

If your car’s catalytic converter is stolen, you will immediately start to hear a loud sound, as well as a reduced performance of your car once you switch it on.

If your catalytic converter is present but is failing, you will notice a sound that sounds like someone is shaking a box full of rocks when the car is stopped in traffic or idling. If your car shows any of these signs, take it to a muffler shop.

Exhaust Leaks

When you feel some new vibrations when the car is running, call in a professional to check your exhaust system. The vibration can be noticed through the car seat and the steering wheel. The vibrations may also extend to the foot pedal. There might not be a resonating sound, but this depends on how big the area damaged is. A leak in the exhaust does not just cause new vibrations. It may also mean that your car’s engine is operating below its optimum performance level.

In any case, you need to make sure that your car is performing at its best. But even as you work to ensure the exhaust system is working great, ensure you always have good oil running in your engine. If you do not, consider an oil change in Calgary today.
