Why is my car loud ?

[Civic slayer]

I didn't mean to come off as a dick but I mean if u think about it, it kinda is mainly commen sense

Do you really need to ask? You have an exhaust leak. That means your exhaust is leaking. It may be the exhaust piping, it may be the muffler, it may be the resonator, it may be the cat, it may be the flex pipe, it may be the resonator. We don't have your car in front of us to look at it. You do. So look at it.

Also, you don't need a big-ass picture of your car posted in a thread asking about an exhaust leak. We know what a CB7 looks like, and that picture does nothing to help us answer your question.

^^^ he makes an excellent point

so why do you feel the need to reiterate that? you had nothing to add by what you said.

this is why my car got real loud wednesday night

That exact thing happened to me on my brown accord, i was on the highway very far from home so i had to just let it drag, it dragged the ground until it ripped the flex pipe in half. Goodbye cat.

That said I feel like your guys lack of willingness to help out noobs who have little or no previous car knowledge is going to make the next generation of car / cb7 enthusiasts lose interest in our cars. The least we could do is be nice about it even if they ask a question that has an obvious answer.

The only thing thats going to happen if we keep being mean to new people is contributing to making more ricers who only care about simple cosmetic things like spoilers and body kits instead of learning about their car and such

edit: obviously I don't mean everyone, but the people that do this know who they are

you do have a point but SPOON FEEDING the new people instead of them trying to put in some effort to search for the answer before asking the question isn't going to help the situation either. I certainly don't know everything about these cars but i try to make sure that i have tried to find out as much as i possibly could BEFORE i start a new thread asking a question and if i add pictures, the picture will be related to the question i am asking. The new generation thinks that EVERYTHING should be handed to them in this world and it's just NOT going to work that way. They need to put forth the effort themselves to find the information they need. If they don't find it THEN they can ask their questions and it will likely be looked upon with more respect if that person said they searched but didn't find the answer to the question they were looking for.

If rude remarks on a forum is going to keep you from doing something you want to do then go find something else to do. Quit your bloodclot crying and GTFO with that bullshit.

damn how did you manage to do that?

[Bad_dude]

Dude,
You got hammered for wanting to eat off some one else's spoon. It's enough to take off axle nuts without effort.
Hey, to get good answers you need to put some thoughts and planning into your questions. You must structure your questioning and you'll get the answers you need. Poor questioning methods usually get you no answer or bad answers or hostility. Hostility b/c many people actually work hard for their knowledge and they think you should put in the same effort to obtain it.
Good luck Bud. Don't get discourage, this site is the most helpful of many sites I have been to. You don't have to guess what the people are thinking.

Just because his exhaust is loud doesnt mean its an exhaust leak. That is typically described as a ticking or hissing noise. It looks like someone put an "aftermarket exhaust" on and that is the problem..

[megarock15]

i love the sound of open headers with no down pipe. i was putting a new exhaust on one of Natescb7's cb's and we had to move it into my garage. it totally sounded like a harley. lol
