Wife drove the car (a seat leon) down to our inlaws yesterday (I cycled), and said it sounded really loud and the power was reduced. Last MOT (12 months back) the guy said the exhaust had a small hole in it and would need to be replaced eventually. So I guess now is the time.
Just taken it out myself and it is definitely sounding loud, but the power doesn’t feel too off. My question is how immediate a problem is this? I’m going to the match today, so my wife needs to drive 70 miles back up to Manchester with the kids. Is there any chance of the exhaust totally failing or something like that? We can go to kwik fit in Telford today and try and get it done, or drive back up and get it fixed in Manchester on our own schedule.
Any thoughts? [Sry for the fretful question, but I know little about cars and with my wife driving it on her own we were worried about it].
