Exhaust and Mufflers · Dearborn, MI

Exhaust and Mufflers in Dearborn, MI

The exhaust system carries combustion gases away from the engine, quiets them and cleans them before they leave the tailpipe. AutoTech Clinic repairs mufflers, pipes, flex joints, catalytic converters and oxygen sensor faults at 24100 Michigan Ave in Dearborn.

Exhaust work is not just about noise. A leak ahead of the oxygen sensor confuses the fuel mixture, and a leak anywhere under the cabin can let exhaust gas into the car, which is a genuine safety issue.

Why is my car so loud all of a sudden?

A sudden increase in noise almost always means a hole or a separated joint in the exhaust, most often at the flex pipe, the muffler seam or a rusted section of pipe. We put it on a lift and find it quickly.

Can you weld in a section instead of replacing the whole system?

Often yes. If the rest of the pipe is sound we can replace or repair the failed section rather than selling you a complete system. We show you the condition of the rest before you decide.

Is an exhaust leak dangerous?

It can be. Exhaust contains carbon monoxide, and a leak under the cabin or near a door seal can let it inside. If you smell exhaust in the car, drive with windows open and get it checked right away.

Do you replace catalytic converters?

Yes. We test first, because a converter code is often caused by something else such as an exhaust leak, a lazy oxygen sensor or an engine running rich. Replacing a converter without fixing that cause means the new one fails too.

Will an exhaust leak fail an emissions test?

It can, and it will usually cause a check engine light, which is itself a failure in most testing programs. A leak ahead of the oxygen sensor throws the readings off and sets codes.

Do you do exhaust work the same day?

Most exhaust repairs are same day, including muffler and pipe sections and oxygen sensors. Call (313) 277-7200 and tell us what you are hearing.
