Warning Signs My Honda Needs a New Muffler
A common muffler failure is a corrosion from road salt or other debris. Collisions can also damage mufflers when the vehicle is rear-ended. The possible warning signs that you may need a new muffler include:
- Loud Noises — The purpose of a muffler is to keep noises down. Sudden roaring sounds should be serviced immediately.
- Holes or Rust — The metal can wear out over time due to heat and create holes or rust. A quick visual inspection can easily detect this issue.
- Car Temperature — If you let your Honda idle for a few minutes after turning it on and you experience abnormally high engine temperatures, there may be a problem with your muffler.
- Leaking Water — Drips of condensation is normal, but water leaking from several places on the muffler is concerning.
- Bad smells — This is the most dangerous sign. Your muffler funnels exhaust fumes outside and away from your vehicle, and if something is going wrong, it can cause these fumes to remain inside your Genesis, probing long-term health issues.
As a singular component to the whole system, inspecting and being aware of your muffler is important as it may do greater damage to your whole vehicle.
How Often Do I Need to Replace My Honda’s Muffler
Most mufflers last from five to seven years or 40,000-80,000 miles, but there are factors that can affect this time period. Frequent exposure to salt on roads, speed bumps, and potholes can do significant damage to your muffler.
Having your vehicle’s undercarriage washed, and choosing a replacement genuine OEM Honda muffler made of corrosion-resistant steel when the time comes helps prolong the lifespan.
