car making cheap car noise - Toyota Yaris Forums

yea at 100,000kms my car started to make the "cheap car" noise... what I mean is my exaust system is loosing some air from the front of the car. I have no clue of the name of the part and how much it cost to have it replace but I remember on my 2001 echo, i had to change that part after 6 years! anyone know what im talking about?!

Ohh and if someone could place my post in the proper category I will appreciate!

THANKS~!

My guess would be the gasket between the manifold and downpipe...?
Very cheap to fix

Yes. There was another member who had the same problem. I think it was PK.

You would have to talk to a dealer there in Canada. I'm not sure if they have the same warranties we do in the states. I will take a guess and say no. It's a relativey cheap fix.

probably not under waranty anymore since i am over 100k kms so! will go to an independent trusted garage next friday since I don't trust any garage YET in montreal area! will wait to be home in Edmundston (NB) to have it check then!
thanks again
