Why is my Audi 80 making a loud noise when accelerating?

I recently started noticing that my Audi 80 is making a loud noise whenever I accelerate. It seems to be coming from the engine. Any idea what could be causing this and what I should do about it?

It is possible that your exhaust system is leaking. This can happen due to normal wear and tear or damage to the exhaust pipes. I recommend taking your car to a mechanic as soon as possible to inspect and repair any damage.

Another potential issue could be a malfunctioning catalytic converter. This can also cause loud noises during acceleration. I recommend getting a diagnostic test done to determine if this is the problem.
