I think your Dad has given you some good advice there ! It sounds like something bad has happened, and if you drive it you risk making that worse (if possible ?). Didn't your Dad used to work for Toyota ? He probably knows more about engines than the vast majority of us here !

right guys got resolution for this.
the exhaust manifold to where the downpipe has snapped off...
so this is what is giving the loud sound etc etc..

Sounds like the car needs a bit of tlc to get it back to being roadworthy. If its got bits falling off, what else hasnt been maintained properly?
