The car is loud but becomes much louder when i push the gas pedal. It seems to be mainly in the front end. I have had my car checked for a vibration and its not a gentle one. But I get told its because of the car. Could my muffler system messing up? plus i had a new transmission put in last year.

Motor and tranny mounts need to be checked
also it sounds as you may have an exhaust leak and should have it checked
flex pipe is what common


have it check
