Hi All,
My 00' has a hole in the muffler causing it to run a little louder
than usual. Otherwise it's running fine but I've got to take an
important trip tomorrow that's approx. 50 miles away. Is it OK to
drive the van w/this problem w/the exhaust? The hole may be in the
pipe now that I think of it, does that matter? thx.

Good idea to keep the windows open if you do. It should be fine, but
since you can't smell carbon monoxide better to be safe than sorry.

Keeping in mind that exhaust pipes and mufflers to have small holes in them
to let the water out that is created by the catylitic convertor.
