This is simple. Get on the ground and take a look. If the muffler is there, it didnt fall off. If it is not there ... well .. it fell off.

I suspect more likely your muffler and/or exhaust pipe are rusted through and ready to fall off. Do not operate your car in the routine manner until you get this repaired. It will only annoy the neighbors and could damage your vehicle. There are probably laws where you live that you should also consider.

Get it repaired please.

Thank you for your question @ FixYa.com

Hi there.
It sounds like the baffel plates in the muffler which is a common thing on all cars sooner than later ,and the answer to it is get under the car and just bang the muffler with your hand and if a noise is there get it repaired or replaced OTHER WISE if not there go ot the coverter the other sort of muffler towards the front and do the same to that ,as will be your problem.

Engine Trouble

Your getting backfires? hmm interesting. Seems like your engine is getting flooded and either purging it out of the exhaust or burning it all at once or both (backfire). Sounds like a leaky engine valve to me.There again the bluish smoke indicates to me thatyou are leaking oil somewhere- bad rings or head gasket maybe, which could cause a loss of compression which could also cause your problems.That rattling from the left/rear side sounds like a bad muffler try kicking the muffler (not hard though) next time you walk by it.
