Loud Noise

My car all of a sudden started sounding like a lawnmower. I don't know what is wrong. Could it be the exhaust or something else? Please help.

sounds like you have a hole in your exhaust somewhere

A hole defiantly a hole if it's in a crack you got the WRONG hole.

MUST....REFRAIN.....FROM....SAYING ....ANYTHING.........

get under your car and see if you can find any holes. A good place to start would be at the flex pipe. The mesh that holds it together desinegrates after time and will cause it to sound like ass. If it just happend you probably blew out a gasket.

a p***y is technically in a crack as well. and even so, you're not in the wrong place, just different. Think of it as a scenic detour. . . . . .

Wow!!! All I wanted to know was what was going on with my car, and I got a anatomy lesson. Thanks guys.

[ahayford]

I did just happen. How much work is it to replace a gasket? How do I know which one it is?

[ahayford]

Oh yeah. I can smell exhaust when I'm driving.

well what other hole resembles a crack? unless you have a big booty hoe, yeah they just have one big ass crack with 2 holes, LMAO

and NX I was just playin around man, good times

also ahayford, while you car is idling, place your hand over the end of your exhaust, as to completely close it off not letting any air come out of the tip, and while doing this stick your head under the car and you should be able to hear the leak and where it is coming from.

Check the connection between your actual header and the downpipe. Right below the oxygen sensor you see three 14mm bolts holding the header and the downpipe together. its a bitch to remove, but sometimes those bolts do come loose and create a gap. Also, check to see if your flex pipe is intact, its before the cat on towards the engine.

When i first got the car i had fumes come all over the inside of the car and up the hood because there was a big fat hole on the downpipe and it was rusted out, so i got the whole exhaust put in after that and it never smelled like exhaust after that.
