Exhaust Repair Services

Our shop covers pretty much every part of your vehicle’s exhaust system.


Catalytic Converter Repair & Replacement

Catalytic converters are key for cutting down the bad stuff your car puts out. When they’re working, they turn toxic gases into less nasty ones before they leave your exhaust.


How do you know yours is on the fritz? Here’s what to look for:



  • Worse gas mileage
  • Failed emissions tests
  • Check engine light popping on
  • That awful rotten egg smell
  • Sluggish engine response


Depending on what’s wrong, we’ll repair or replace your converter. We use OEM or quality aftermarket parts that actually meet emissions standards.


Most swaps take one to three hours. And yeah, we recycle the old converters properly—they’re packed with valuable metals.


Muffler

Your muffler keeps engine noise down and steers exhaust gases away from you. If it’s damaged, your car can get loud and performance might dip.

Some common muffler problems we see include:


  • Rust and corrosion
  • Baffles breaking inside
  • Loose or busted hangers
  • Holes or cracks


We’ll check, fix, or swap out mufflers using solid parts. Most repairs don’t take long—usually one to two hours, unless it’s a mess.


We always double-check alignment and make sure everything’s mounted right to avoid future rattles or leaks.


Exhaust Manifold

The exhaust manifold bolts straight to your engine and collects gases from all the cylinders. If it cracks, you’ll probably hear a ticking noise and maybe notice a drop in performance.


We fix things like:


  • Cracked cast iron manifolds
  • Warped flanges
  • Broken bolts or studs
  • Leaky gaskets


Our process? We inspect everything, swap out damaged gaskets, and replace the whole manifold if needed. We always use the right torque so you don’t get leaks or cracks later.


Resonator

Resonators work with your muffler to shape your exhaust sound. If yours is failing, you might hear a weird drone at certain speeds.


Here’s what we do for resonators:


  • Find and fix leaks
  • Replace the whole thing if needed
  • Tweak hangers
  • Treat rust


You can pick OEM-style or performance resonators. Most of these jobs take an hour or two, and we make sure everything lines up with the rest of your exhaust.

Exhaust Pipes

Exhaust pipes link up all the pieces of your system. They take a beating, especially with Thornhill’s salty winter roads.


Our pipe services include:


  • Patching up small holes or cracks
  • Replacing whole sections
  • Bending pipes for custom fits
  • Swapping out connection gaskets


Tail Pipe

The tail pipe’s the last stop for exhaust gases, sending them safely away from your car. If it’s damaged, you could end up with exhaust creeping inside—not good.


We handle:

  • Rust fixes and prevention
  • Custom tip installs
  • Alignment tweaks
  • Full replacements


We always check for enough clearance from your car’s body and fuel system. Want a different look? We’ve got a bunch of tip styles and finishes to match your ride, and we never sacrifice function for looks.

Real Stories in Thornhill, ON

"The staff at MR automotive are very professional and honest. When Bobby told me my air conditioning would be a little more expensive to fix due to the previous owner crazy gluing all of the lines together - I was happy to understand the situation instead of just being presented with a huge bill to replace everything. This isn't the type of shop where you'll be told to replace things prematurely or without proper explanation and proof - which is quite hard to find these days!"

"MR Automotive is full of people who know their stuff but it's also great for people who aren't car-savvy (like me!) I trust Bobby & David to do a great job every time, they never sell me on anything I don't need, but make sure I at least understand what's going on. Thankful to have a mechanic I know and love."
