I first went to Marco Muffler on Greenback, Orangevale since 1979. I have taken "several" vehicles either to Greenback or their Fulton location, and have been happy with their work and the results. I'm always looking to improve on the OEM muffler, both in less weight and a pleasant sound. Mark or any of the others at Marco Muffler have been spot on with their advice. I recently took my 2018 Ford EcoSport to Fulton to replace the "heavy" (25 lbs) muffler with a lighter DynoMax. Most of my previous vehicles had the DynoMax mufflers installed. Phil and Matt knew what I wanted in the sound that I was looking for, noticeable but quiet in the cabin. I highly recommend you visit and you too will be a happy customer.... read more

Friendly, honest, very reasonably priced! Thank you Angel and crew for welding our muffler back in such a timely fashion!

Great customer service, they stand behind there work 110%. No other place like with guys that know what they are doing. :)

I was quoted 30 with owner knowing he had to cut a piece of pipe, add & fix. I had my two kids, (6 month old), and the owner saw I was in a bind & took advantage. Wound up paying nearly 70, and he even messed up welding, which created loud rattle. I couldn't turn back & deal with him & his shady work because my children were tired & hungry. I finally took my 4runner to my mechanic, and he fixed for FREE and is helping me file a complaint with B.A.R... read more

Good information, good price and quick procedure. Took my mufflers out.

Came in on a referral.. originally just wanted a quote for catback exhaust on my 15' Subaru Wrx/STi - I was going to order an Invidia exhaust system or something comparable.. which would've cost upwards of $1500. I told Travis what I was wanting to hear from my car and he suggested making me a custom exhaust with the tips of my preference. I was Leary because I thought it would not be as loud or nice as one of the name brand exhaust systems. He assured me I would love it and if I didn't he would work with me to customize it to my liking. They ended up getting me in last minute even offered to give me a ride to work. They installed a custom exhaust on my car for less than $400 and it sounds PERFECT!! It's exactly what I wanted - and the price was crazy good! Also it was done in under 2 hours! Needless to say, I will most definitely be returning for any future exhaust upgrades or issues. Travis is an easy to talk to and helpful guy. Thanks for everything! read more

Fit me in short notice . Did quality work. Exactly how and what I wanted! Really appreciate it! Thanks guys !

I went in today to delete my mufflers after not being impressed with the sound. Phil helped me through the process because i already had an aftermarket system but it wasn't as good. Marco muffler really changed the way my car sounds and i love it. I appreciate all of their help on my car definitely referring them to anyone who needs work on their system!! Do not hesitate to have your work done here you won't regret it. You'll walk in and out with a smile read more

This place is awesome!! I had a heat shield on my Jeep, which had a broken weld. The staff did a perfect job, I was in and out in 15 minutes. I have used the Marco muffler in Rocklin several years ago for my last Jeep, had a staff recommended Magnaflo system which sounded great and was reasonable. Great company to do business with!! read more

Angel at Marcos Muffler on Fulton got my sons car in in and back on the road on. Saturday morning with no appointment. We had expected a costly repair and were pleasantly surprised to hear that we just needed a weld. I appreciate their efficiency and integrity. Very nice to do business with. read more

Great customer service. Friendly, clean shop, great selection of mufflers and tips. They took my car on the rack right away. They also have the best prices in sac! Get your work done at Marco! Will be coming back again and sending people this way. read more

Professionalism. Courtesy AND MORE! Dropped in to get educated on performance mufflers and parts as I just got a new dodge charger. First off, I was greeted with a friendly smile. Now that's A1 customer service lol. Mark really took the time to explain in detail every bit of information I needed to make a decision when buying a new exhaust system. This man has the patience of Job. Reasonable pricing, hell he even educated me on product that I didn't need to buy.... THAT I WAS LOOKING TO BUY. I would recommend this fine establishment to anyone. They even fixed a exhaust leak while my car was lifted. Buying with confidence. read more

i had a significant problem with my truck ... Richard advised to bring in and him and Ken did a fantastic professional job. Love it when businesses look after the customer! read more

Brought my car in with a corroded tail pipe with a hole in it. They repaired/replaced while I waited for far less than I had expected. Honest friendly staff. Highly recommend! read more

I ordered exhaust parts from summit. They were wrong. I am really happy with the customer service and Travis helped me get back on the road. I will be back for more work and i am going to tell my friends as well. read more

Took my classic Chevy in on Saturday. Felipe is attentive and doesnt seemed rushed. Fixes my exaust and goes above and beyond repairing.....improves the existing set up. Its rare to find a shop that takes pride in their work still! Pricing reasonable. read more

Let me start by saying that I've been going to Marco on and off for 20 years back when the old guy brownie smoked a pipe and chatted you up while you watched your exhaust getting installed. He was a true exhaust craftsman. Fast forward: recently Had mark (as in the owner of Marco) build me a nice custom cat back exhaust for my Volvo with prebent mandrel pieces. Nice guy really enjoyed the experience. The shop manager on the other hand was nothing more than a pain and overcharged me for fixing holes in the catback system they had just installed. If I had to deal with him solely-as in, if I hadn't coincidently had mark work on my car-I'd take my long term business to muffler tech in a heartbeat. For mark his shop gets 5 stars, for shop manager he gets 3 stars or Avg 4. but for custom exhaust work i would generally recommend going to muffler tech. Sadly, Long gone are the haydays of Marco muffler read more

I was shopping around to get my exhaust system done and came across Marcos. I called and made an appointment, when I arrived I was greeted by Phil. They immediately put my car on the rack and showed Me 3 different type of Mufflers before installing anything, which is amazing to be able to hear different sounds and pick the exact one that you like. I picked Flowmaster super 10s, the sound is amazing and they finished in the estimated time they gave me. I'm beyond happy with the work and would recommend Marco's to my friends and Family. read more

Best treatment I've ever received from anyone in the automotive service industry. These are the best muffler shops I've ever been to, and the owner Mark is truly an awesome guy. He knows what he is talking about and does exceptional work. They give each customer the individual attention they require to figure out the problem, and get the job done right. I bought a custom exhaust for my car online that was making a weird whistling sound at high RPM due to a not so great design. I was puzzled, and the company I bought it from wasn't wanting to let me return it. He found the problem and had it fixed in an hour. He even went for test drives before and after with me to make sure everything was good. Could not have asked for more. Thanks Mark and thanks Marco Muffler! read more

This is a Great shop I don't go anywhere else for my muffler\exhaust needs. I got exhaust work done today at a great price. Also came in here to get a new catalytic converter a while back. Nothing but good things to say about this shop. Just walk in and Richard will be there to help and if he's not there someone else will be glad to help. read more

I had to get a catalytic converter for my 2003 VW Jetta and this place gave me a great price $400. I called one place and they wanted $1000! I made a B line straight to Maarco. Spoke to several smog places all them recommended Maarco. They will be doing all my exhaust work from now on. read more

great knowledgeable staff ,I wanted to have a better sound just a little deeper for my range rover sport and they delivered a wonderful looking black tips . thanks. read more

One of the best in my books but not anymore. I took my aftermarket exhaust to get installed thinking it would get done with no problems. They said they couldn't install it because my aftermarket Y pipe didn't allow them to install it. They told me to buy an OEM Y pipe and then maybe they could. So decided to take it to a more local and less knowing shop and they were able to install it with no problem and for a lot less. At the end of the day I guess it is all about money they charge 95$ per hour and with removing my aftermarket Y pipe and installing the new one they surely would have taken "more then 3 hours" if you need an exhaust system installed go somewhere else. Really disappointed they weren't able to do it. read more

My truck wouldn't pass smog and needed the catalytic converters replaced. I called and talked with Richard at the shop and made an appointment for the next day. They were open promptly at the time that they stated and the work was completed on my car within an amazing amount of time. This is the second time that I have used Marco Muffler and I am always treated very nicely and professionally with the staff there. I would highly recommend them for any work that you may need. read more

Perfect Service! I was looking for a good muffler shop to make my Dodge sound more fierce knowing nothing about resonators or mufflers. I was greeted by Rich, who was very friendly and gave me amazing insight on what I should do at the cheapest cost. At no point did I feel I was being sold short or overpriced. My car was taken in less than an hour and the service took less than 20 mins. Rich and the other two gentlemen there with him were very professional and friendly. Definitely will be going here more often and recommending their service to anyone who doesn't know a thing about cars! read more

Called them for some info I wanted, told me to bring my car in and they will see what they can do. More than happy with the results. been there a couple times and have never had a single problem with the staff or services they offer. Told me a wait period and both times my car was done before the time he gave me. Highly recommend this place to anyone for any kind of exhaust needs, fabrication, or services they want done. 5 stars for these guys. read more

good professional service, really clean and organized and didn't try to upsale service. very clear and concise in there explaining repair problem. read more

This review/testimony is not related to service done by Marco Muffler, it is however about the lack of integrity in my opinion of the owner Mark Fereira. I purchased a truck from Mr. Fereira in the middle of July, 2015. I use to be a mechanic but have back issues that prevent me from crawling under, and around a vehicle without pain. I asked Mr. Fereira if there was anything wrong mechanically with the truck, and what repairs or service might I have to do to it. He told me there was nothing needing attention, and all I would have to do is put gas in it. That was not true... turns out the timing chain/gears, and guide were shot, so too was the front end. The guide had literally disintegrated with only the bolts that hold it in remaining, the rest is probably in the oil pan. The reason I did not notice this upon first starting the engine up is because it was not "just started up" I suspect. The tensioner works off of oil pressure, it's a simple plunger that pushes towards the chain to take up slack. Once extended, it could "mask" a sloppy loose chain for one to several hours, but eventually the oil will bleed out of the plunger, and it will recede. That is why the loud rattling sound of a loose chain slapping against the cover is usually heard first thing in the morning when being started after sitting all night. Prior to inspecting the truck, I called Mark and told him I was about 20 minutes away and see him then. I can't prove it, but I suspect he told one of his employees to go out and start up the truck to make sure the plunger was fully extended. I suspected something wrong with the front end upon inspecting the wheels, and during the road test which was only around Orangevale and I was not able to go more than 40 mph. Loose front end parts are more noticeable at freeway speeds. Mark said all it needed was a alignment, and that the front end was in good shape, that too was a lie! After I bought the truck and began to notice these problems, I took the valve cover off and was shocked to see that the chain was so loose and had been for so long that it cut a groove approx. 2 mm to 4 mm deep, and several inches long into the side case/housing. This is evidence of a chronic condition. The truck swayed dramatically side to side while driving on the freeway, so much so that it was difficult to keep it in my lane and I appeared like I was driving while intoxicated. I felt too unsafe to drive the truck on the freeway since. I took the truck to a very reputable repair station for a second opinion, and even though the owner tired to be diplomatic, he told me he found it very hard to believe the prior owner did not know of these conditions. Now for the fun part; Mark's response to this "new" information. First he denied that he knew any of this, then after pressing the issue and asking him to be straight with me, he finally came out and said, " Ya, I knew, but you bought a used vehicle, and there's nothing you can do about it". I told him I thought he was a gentleman and I trusted him, his response was, "Well that was your mistake". He's right there, question is, do you want to make a mistake? If that's how he conducts his personal sales dealings, how does he conduct his customer dealings? Can you trust this man? read more

Hi everyone. I went to Marco Muffler on Fulton Ave. last Monday. Their shop came highly reccomended by Mel Rapton Honda. I have always been impressed with Mel Rapton so I took their advice when they said that Marco was the best. I brought my 1994 Honda Accord LX in for a new catalytic converter to pass the smog check. I was told by the manager that my part would be in stock a little after noon. I went back at 1:30 to have the job started and the manager explained that he would have to send his worker to pick up the part. I had somewhere to be at 2:15 so I had to decline. I took my car on Tuesday to A1 Express Muffler which is just down the street. They were able to do the job in 15 minutes and referred me to Smog King after the job was done. Moral of this story, if you don't like being jacked around just call A1 Express Muffler. Not only did they fix my car they saved me $80 on the job. Marco's price was $260, A1's was only $180. I have since talked to a few of my friends who also say Marco Muffler is a rip off. I will never refer anyone to this shop. Poor customer service/ slow service and overpriced. read more
