    I recently decided to start looking at upgrades for my car, as it is stock, and I am having trouble finding anything. Are there just not any cat-backs that are made for my car or am I just blind? Is the main option to just buy a muffler and bring it to an exhaust shop? Any help would be greatly...

    Hi all, I need help! My RAV4 rattles seemingly randomly, and has for the last several years. We’ve taken it to mechanics 4 times over the years but they either couldn’t find the noise or couldn’t make the rattle happen. After spending some time with it myself here is I’ve learned, 1) It can set...

    When I shift into reverse and accelerate, this muffler bangs against the floor and I can hear the sound of the engine exhaust resonate through the body of the vehicle. My assumption is a motor mount has worn out but I'd like to hear from people who've experienced this and find out what their...

    I know this would sound ridiculous, why do mods on a car that is not meant to be tuned. I was wondering if anyone has done some exhaust mods on the Rav4 2020. I want a different appearance to them. I don't want to change the whole exhaust system and the muffler. So is it possible to get an...

    Lifted (1.5 in) my XSE with the LP Adventure lift kit, but the muffler still sits low at the stock height. It's not a big deal and I don't fear it will get damaged on trails, but it is visually annoying. Anyone have any thoughts? Wondering if there is a way to raise the muffler/exhaust to be...

    Hi everyone, I am resident of California who just bought a 1997 Rav4 5spd 4wd from a small dealer in Portland Oregon. The car shows that it's a 49 state vehicle that only meets federal emission regulations according to the emissions sticker under the hood. I am guessing it wont pass smog in...
