Why Hiddenite drivers book mobile exhaust leak & manifold repair
Hiddenite is gem-mine country west on US-64. Plenty of gravel and no shop for miles, so we come to you. We've done plenty of exhaust leak & manifold repair jobs in this part of Alexander County, and the process is the same everywhere: confirm the problem, quote it, fix it, and clean up.
What's included
A ticking on cold start that fades as the engine warms is a cracked exhaust manifold or broken manifold bolt. A sudden loud exhaust is usually a rusted flex pipe or flange.

- Smoke-test the exhaust to locate the leak
- Replace the manifold gasket or extract broken manifold bolts
- Replace flex pipes, gaskets, hangers, and clamps
- Verify with a second smoke test
