Land Rover Repair: noise, land rover discovery, muffler shop


Question
I have an 04 Land Rover Discovery SE7 and recently it has been making a lot of noise when I release the gas. The higher the speed I'm traveling at when I release the gas, the louder the noise. As soon as I press the gas the noise disappears. It sounds like it may be coming from underneath the car. What could this noise be?

Answer
Hi Amer,

could it be exhaust related?

Take it to a muffler shop or a general garage mechanic that you trust.  Have them lift the Disco and perhaps they'll be able to see if there is a problem with the exhaust system.  It could just be that that connection has come loose (broken or lost bolt) or a gasket has broken.  It could also be your catalytic converter on the Y pipe.

Best of luck,
