Loud exhaust sound
I was just driving back from work and my cars exhaust really started sounding very loud?! I didn't hit or run over anything, but I'm guessing this is either the muffler or catalytic converter. Any guesses? Car is a 2001 with 107,000 miles.
Also, do I need to goto a Volvo dealer for this, or should a local mechanic be able to replace. Any guesses at how much it'll cost?

RE: Loud exhaust sound
With the engine cold, look behind the engine for any nuts backed off the studs for the exhaust manifold. You might have to reach back there and feel around. I had a nut back off and caused a sewing machine sound that was louder when the engine was cold. I tightened the nut and the noise went away.
