Had a situation with my Infinity QX56 which was making a noise near my engine. It didn't sound right. It sounded as if the air wasn't being pushed through the exhaust. I had it checked and it turned out that my engine manifold had a crack 6 inches long which was causing the noise. Got it fixed but at a heavy price.
A hole in the muffler would cause a knocking sound in your muffler. A loose exhaust pipe can also cause a knocking noise.
basically, a muffler is used to reduce the sound that the engine produces:)
A muffler is a device used in the exhaust system of a vehicle to reduce noise produced by the engine. In a sentence, you could say, "The mechanic replaced the old muffler with a new one to make the car quieter."
Even if you can't repair a faulty muffler yourself you can determine if the muffler is actually the problem. One of the first signs of a failing muffler is a change in the sound of your car when it starts and while it is running. The car will sound louder but you might not notice at first. If the muffler is not repaired the sound will definitely get louder and louder. In most towns sound pollution is an offense for which you will be written a ticket. That's only one reason to make sure your muffler gets fixed, and soon.
start with your head A muffler with holes in it would sound like a muffler with holes in it, terrible. Drilling holes in the muffler would increase the chance of getting exhaust fumes in the vehicle which is a bad thing.
Actually, mufflers ate the thing that quiet your engine. If you hear a deep sound, you likely need a new muffler.
What unusual sound do they hear in the fire?
IT is made to reflect sound back to the muffler to cancel sound out, so the sound you hear is what dodge wants you to hear. if you take it off, your factory muffler will sound like, loud, but you can get a singel after market muffler that is quiet with out the resonator.Even a new oem muffler will be loud, so go with an after market that works alone with out the resonator. Rember its a family van. Quiet is better.
Usually a sputtering muffler means that a new catalytic converter is needed. The sputtering sound is the car misfiring.
No. No.
