    I have an 06 GXP, and recently the exhaust got louder/deeper while at idle and accelerating.

    Ideas why?

    I put it up on the lift and inspected the exhaust and found no holes, so its probably internal, i figured like a baffle or something is bad.

    Have to love it 45,000 miles and 5 yrs old, needs exhaust work.

    So far its been the worst GM vehicle we have owned.....Out of a lot....Time to say bye bye!
