A broken exhaust is certainly not something you can miss on your car; the noise is normally far too much to ignore. However, a small hole in an exhaust system that gets bigger over time can become something you get so used to you may think the noise is normal.
There are a number of issues associated with exhaust damage – from reduced fuel economy, illegal or annoying noise levels and leaking gases which can find their way into the cabin depending on where the damage is. As with all cars, the exhaust systems on ’s need changing from time to time; what needs changing depends on where the issue is and which section needs attention. You can also have problems with catalytic converters where they need replacing due to failure or simply age. Nearly all exhaust issues can lead a car to fail an MOT test so finding a good exhaust garage is very important.
