Automatic transmission vehicles may downshift, experience sluggish acceleration, and produce abnormal noises. Relevant information is as follows: 1. Automatic transmission vehicles may downshift: When the exhaust pipe is clogged, the engine power of an automatic transmission vehicle will decrease. Typically, when the driver wants to accelerate after reaching a certain gear, they will press the accelerator. If there is no response, they may press it harder, but this usually does not result in actual acceleration and may instead cause the vehicle to downshift. This is due to the clogged exhaust pipe. 2. Sluggish acceleration: When attempting to accelerate, the vehicle may feel underpowered. This lack of power is often caused by incomplete combustion in the engine, which reduces power output. The root cause of incomplete combustion is usually a clogged exhaust pipe. 3. Abnormal noises: When there is an issue with the vehicle's exhaust pipe, abnormal noises may occur. These noises are typically a rattling sound, distinct from other types of abnormal noises. Additionally, abnormal noises from the exhaust system may be accompanied by excessive exhaust emissions. If left unaddressed for a long time, this can potentially damage other components of the vehicle.
