Why Mocksville drivers book mobile exhaust leak & manifold repair

Mocksville is the Davie County seat, a straight shot east on I-40. Plenty of commuters to Winston-Salem and a lot of them would rather we fix the car while they work from home. We've done plenty of exhaust leak & manifold repair jobs in this part of Davie County, and the process is the same everywhere: confirm the problem, quote it, fix it, and clean up.

What's included

A ticking on cold start that fades as the engine warms is a cracked exhaust manifold or broken manifold bolt. A sudden loud exhaust is usually a rusted flex pipe or flange. Fumes inside the cabin are dangerous. We find the leak with a smoke test, and repair manifolds, gaskets, flex pipes, and clamps in your driveway.

  1. Smoke-test the exhaust to locate the leak
  2. Replace the manifold gasket or extract broken manifold bolts
  3. Replace flex pipes, gaskets, hangers, and clamps
  4. Verify with a second smoke test

Signs it's time

  • Ticking that goes away when the engine warms
  • Loud exhaust that got loud suddenly
  • Exhaust smell in the cabin
  • Check engine light for O2 sensor or lean codes
  • Rattling from under the car
