Default wat can cause some strange noise from exhaust??

i find out dat is it not from the valve, and is from the exhaust. and now becoz i have a aftermarket exhaust, audi won't be able to cover it? so i am wondering wat can cause the exhaust to have such strange noise, a hole maybe?? when my rpm reaches around 3000rpm, there is this strange noise?? and i notice dat my car has no power, just not as before. so can someone tell me wat is this whole thing all about?

If it is engine noise (like a strange growl), that is usually the sign of an exhaust leak.

Default You are correct. Audi will not touch it. However, you should take it to where you had it installed.

Most exhausts have a warranty, and if they are broken, will be fixed or replaced under that warranty.
