- Unusual noises from the exhaust system, such as hissing or rattling.
- Reduced fuel efficiency may indicate a problem with the catalytic converter.

If you notice these signs, a professional must immediately check your Volvo exhaust system.
Maintaining Your Exhaust System
Regular maintenance is vital to keeping Volvo's exhaust system in top condition. Here are a few tips on how to maintain it:
- Check for Leaks - Look for any signs of leaks, such as soot or rust around the connections or joints. Leaks can cause your engine to work harder, reduce fuel efficiency, and damage other components.
- Replace Your Oxygen Sensor - Your Volvo's oxygen sensor monitors the amount of oxygen in the exhaust system and adjusts the fuel-air mixture accordingly. A faulty oxygen sensor can cause poor fuel economy and increased emissions.
- Clean the Catalytic Converter - The catalytic converter can become clogged with carbon build-up over time. A clogged converter can cause poor fuel economy, reduced performance, and increased emissions.
- Replace the Muffler - The muffler can become damaged or corroded over time, causing increased noise and reduced performance. If you notice any loud noises or rattling, it's time to replace it.
Here are some tips to help you keep your vehicle running smoothly:

- Keep your vehicle's fluids and oil levels topped up to prevent issues with the exhaust system.
