MECHANIC'S CORNER: Hyundai Getz Rattling Noise

Hyundai Getz gets inspected

This week a Hyundai Getz comes in the shop and the lady is complaining about smoke coming from beneath the car as well as rattling noise when driving the vehicle. When we placed the unit on the lifter and inspected it, we found that the rust on the muffler has done it's work and has cut through it.

Damaged muffler caused by the rust

Seeing the damage, the remedy is simple. It's just a matter of welding the muffler back to it's original position and problem solved!
