Frequently Asked Questions

What are the signs of a failing exhaust?

Common signs include a loud roar (hole in pipe or silencer), persistent rattling (loose clamp or bracket), hissing (cracked gasket or manifold), chugging noise (blockage), and reduced fuel efficiency.

Will a faulty exhaust fail my MOT?

Yes. A faulty catalytic converter or exhaust system causing excessive emissions will result in an immediate MOT failure. It is also illegal to drive without a functioning catalytic converter.

How often should I check my exhaust?

We recommend a visual exhaust inspection at least once a year or every 10,000 miles. Vehicles used for short town trips may need more frequent checks as they are prone to rust from internal moisture.
