There’s nothing quite like the roar of a finely tuned engine as your foot presses down onto the accelerator.  The deep resonating sound can be very impressive.  Did you know that the roar of an engine, though, could also be hiding some serious problems for your vehicle?  This is especially true when the roaring gets louder as you actually accelerate while driving down the road.  A Phoenix oil change may not be the first thing that enters your mind when you think of a loud engine during acceleration, but it should be.  Low or old oil can lead to a louder engine.  When the oil is this low or old, it is a good idea to have it changed before it leads to further engine damage.

Another route to take when considering the cause of the louder engine sounds during acceleration is your exhaust system.  A routine Phoenix car tune up can ensure that your exhaust system is in working order and that no pinholes are developing in the exhaust pipe or separating in the exhaust manifold.  This is a good time to spot any other developing problems as well.  After all, a nicely tuned engine, roaring with power, may be cool, but leaking exhaust and burning oil just aren’t.
