Hey Fixter, how often do I need to replace my exhaust?

Major exhaust components are designed to last a long time, however there's no way to predict their true lifespan. Because exhausts are exposed to extreme temperatures they can often experience issues and begin to fail.

Our reviews

Takes a lot of stress away

I would definitely recommend this company: knowing someone was keeping an eye on everything to make sure I wasn't being overcharged for parts and labour takes a lot of stress out of having the work done. I felt really well looked after. Thank you Fixter.

Kathleen Hodge, West Yorkshire

Excellent service

Excellent service. On time to pick up my car & drop it back. Full service cost £179, main dealer quoted me £700-lots different!

Muhammad, Birmingham

Total game-changer!

Just had my MOT done through Fixter for the first time. It took about 5 minutes of my time in total to book, hand over the key, and get it back when the car was returned. So I was able to carry on looking after my 2 year old. Total game-changer!

Oliver Woodford, London

No need to drive to a garage

Can't get more convenient than someone turning up, taking the car from the house for its MOT and returning it a few hours later. No having to drive to a garage (often miles from anywhere or in the middle of an industrial estate) or hanging around waiting.

Darren, Pontefract

I literally cannot fault them

This is the 3rd time I have used Fixter and I recommend to everyone. It makes getting an MOT super easy for me. Everyone I speak to on the phone is incredibly helpful and polite, and they seem to be the most cost effective. I literally cannot fault them.

Ford

The Ford Motor Company is an American multinational automaker, founded by Henry Ford in 1903. One of the most long-standing giants of the motoring industry with an estimated asset wealth of around $256 billion, Ford became a popular household name throughout the UK in the 1960s with the introduction of the Ford Transit, the Ford Escort and the Ford Capri.

With the Ford Fiesta consistently winning accolades as the best selling car in the UK, it’s no surprise to hear that in 2018 there were approximately 5.5million Ford cars on the roads by the end of the year.

With a proven track record for good value and sensible, practical driving, along with a dealership just around every corner, Ford has developed a method of sustaining great sales by giving drivers just what they need.

There’s a Ford car for practically every sensible driver. Actually, there are a few Ford cars for the more daring driver too. Take a look at the history of RS and Cosworth models, both making an impact in the world of rally driving and touring car racing.

While they’re better known for providing family transport that includes the Ka, the Fiesta and the Focus, Ford also produces the lavishly equipped Edge SUV, and also the S-Max and Galaxy people carriers too.

And for something quite a lot less mainstream, Ford deliver some muscle

From a very traditional and mainstream marque, it’s refreshing to see that they still deliver a great big slice of larger than life America—and the latest model Ford Mustang is no exception. If a Mondeo or a Focus isn’t really your thing, and even the RS models aren’t sporty enough, then the new Mustang’s brawny delivery of sleek lines powered by its 5-litre V8 engine could be just the thing. Failing that, the Ford GT supercar with its twin-turbo V6 won’t fail to turn heads. All £420k of it.

What does a car exhaust do?

Your car exhaust is responsible for transporting gases away from your engine, cleaning them and finally expelling them from your car. Your exhaust also improves the performance and fuel efficiency of your car. Problems with your exhaust can therefore be disastrous for your engine’s performance, your wallet and the environment!

How do I know if my car exhaust needs replacing?

Some common signs that your exhaust may need replacing are:

  • Loud, roaring noises

  • Bad fumes

  • Reduced fuel efficiency

  • Rattling or hissing noises

  • Holes or cracks in your exhaust

  • Rust or corrosion

How long do exhausts last?

Major exhaust components are designed to last a long time, sometimes even the life of the vehicle, however there's no way to predict their true lifespan. Because exhausts are exposed to extreme temperature fluctuations they can often experience issues and can begin to fail over time.

We recommend having your exhaust checked at least once every 10,000 miles, or once a year, whichever comes around first. So if you think yours is due a check, schedule a free exhaust check and one of our top-rated mechanics will be happy to take a look.

Can I drive with a bad exhaust?

Technically you can drive with a broken exhaust, however it's neither safe nor legal and could cause a number of problems when you're out on the road. In the UK, laws and guidelines regarding vehicle emissions are very strict, therefore if your exhaust is causing excessive amounts of harmful gases to be released, you could face a fine and an MOT fail. A bad exhaust will also prevent your engine from running as efficiently resulting in further problems and poor fuel economy.
