I’m writing to get your guys’ opinion on what should I check first. I got the car up on jacks and tried to look underneath but everything seems to be connected and I fail to detect any cracks as of now (mind you, it is the middle of the night where I am from). I will be getting it on a lift on Monday, but I’d like to hear your thoughts as well. Exhaust leak? HFCs “broke in”? Did I spit out the cats?
Thanks!
