Check for exhaust leak from the manifold to muffler.

Bring it in to an exhaust shop like Minute Muffler, they should be able to check it for free. They'll put the car on the rack with the engine running and feel for leaks along the entire system.

could be an oil leak. same thing happened with mine.
If it is and you bring it in to a shop to get fixed make sure they catch all the leaks. if not it can cost you a pretty penny
