hi recently my car has been making a grovelly type sound when i just start it up, it soudns very heavy..in act it can be mistaken slightly for a very faint turbo sound..

i beleive it is defo the exhaust, last check am onth ago conformed there was a hole which was filled in..

has htis happened again, im certain the issue lies wih the backbox

any way to find out

i was goign to cover the exhaust for a few seconds and see where the smoke / nise was coming out from ?

all correct?
is it a backbox then>
 
It sounds very much like the exhaust,especialy with a hole in it. What does it sound like when you accelerate fast?
 
turbo charged lol
very deep grounding sound.
it will get worse
but how long have i got

what is the next step i should do etc.

can i quick fill myself if so with what.?
 
Depends on how much mot you have.It will not pass with a hole in exhaust but you can put some bandage and putty on to quieten it but get it replaced before mot
 
mot until next april..but surely i cant leave it liek that there must be a quicker fix?? maybe weld it..
hard to do..garages charge a lot i suppose for a small job

i guess if i leave it it will sound like a scooby lol
 
Welding is cheap if you know who to ask... ;)

The hole will only get bigger if left... all the rain etc from the road will get to it, and start rotting it out.... before you know it, your exhaust will be dragging on the floor.
