Repairs That Go The Distance

Quiet, Clean Exhaust Systems

Your car’s exhaust system does more than keep things quiet — it also helps reduce pollution, improve engine performance and regulate fuel consumption. When parts of the system wear out or get damaged, it can cause loud noises, strong smells, reduced power, and even carbon monoxide leaks into the cabin. That’s why it’s important to address exhaust issues quickly.


We inspect and repair everything from corroded pipes and leaking joints to faulty oxygen sensors and blocked catalytic converters. Whether you drive a family sedan, 4WD, ute or hybrid, our team ensures your vehicle meets emissions standards and performs at its best.


We also offer performance upgrades and replacements for older systems, using trusted brands to get the job done right — every time. Exhaust problems don’t fix themselves, but they’re easy to take care of with our team on your side.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why is my car so loud all of a sudden?

    A sudden increase in engine noise usually points to a leak or hole in the exhaust system — often in the muffler or near a join. When exhaust gases escape before reaching the muffler, they create a loud, sometimes growling sound. It could also mean a broken hanger or loose connection. An inspection will confirm the issue and prevent further damage.

  • Can an exhaust problem affect fuel economy?

    Definitely. A faulty exhaust — especially issues with the oxygen sensor or catalytic converter — can throw off your car’s fuel-air balance. This causes the engine to burn more fuel than needed, leading to poor fuel efficiency and sluggish performance. Fixing exhaust issues often restores lost power and saves money at the pump.

  • What does the exhaust system include?

    The full system includes the exhaust manifold, catalytic converter, resonator, muffler, tailpipe, oxygen sensors, and various seals and gaskets. Each part plays a role in managing engine noise, filtering emissions, and improving performance. A repair might involve fixing or replacing one component or the entire system, depending on the damage.
