Loud Exhaust Fine, Then Your Car Dies? We Can Still Help. | MyMechanic

Okay, let's be real. Getting pulled over for a loud exhaust in Malaysia is already a bummer. But then, to add insult to injury, your car decides to die right after the officer walks away? Now you've got a fine AND a breakdown. It's a double whammy, and we get how frustrating that is. At MyMechanic, we're here to help Singaporean drivers out of these tricky spots, no judgment.

We understand modified cars and their unique needs, offering support that goes beyond standard roadside service.

The Double Whammy: Fine AND Breakdown

So, you've got a noise violation ticket, and now your car won't start. What's going on? Sometimes, it's just bad luck—a battery or alternator can give up the ghost at any time. Other times, after a long drive, stopping the engine for a bit can expose an underlying issue, especially with heat build-up. Or maybe, the stress of the situation just made you notice a problem that was already there. Whatever the reason, you're stuck.

Keep Calm and Call Us

  • Handle the Fine First: Deal with the fine politely. Accept the summons, don't argue. Your priority is to handle the official interaction.
  • Move to a Safe Spot: If the officers allow, try to push your car to a safe shoulder or nearby parking bay.
  • Don't Panic-Crank: If the car doesn’t start, don't keep cranking the engine—you'll just drain the battery.
  • Call for Professional Help: This is definitely not the time to call your buddy. You need a professional who understands the context and can handle the mechanical issue without judgment.
